Thank you for your suggestion.

When I tried to encapsulate this code in a subroutine, and call it in another subroutine, Dancer2 seems to automatically use the main template located in the layout directory as a wrapper to this snippet, as well at to the entire page that generated an undesired visual effect. Ideally, it should be possible to write a simple subroutine that returns a menu, that, in turn can be invoked in some other subroutine that generates an arbitrary form: 
 sub dropdown_menu { # should generate only an HTML snippet of a menu
  #my ..arguments..;

 return  template 'form_menu.tt', { ...argument hash...  };
}
.
.
.

get '/' => sub { # generates the actual form that is used as [% conten
+t %] in the layout/main.tt template

  template 'some_form.tt', {
      menu1  => dropdown_menu(...parameters1...),
      menu2  => dropdown_menu(...parameters2...),
      radio1 => radio_group(...parameters3...),
      .
      . 
  }
}

Does that make sense, or am I accidentally breaking some Dancer2 paradigm? I apologize if this question is trivial.
