Greetings esteemed monks. Is it possible to use a single template file generated with HTML::Template to display information from two separate calls to a database? I'm building a web app that needs to allow the user to view information from two separate mySQL tables on the same page for comparison purposes. The first table would display the status of available resources and the second table would display requests for the resources.

I've tried various approaches with loops on the template and subroutines in the code, but nothing has gotten even close to the double output that I need. At this point, I don't even have anything worth posting here as an example. So, before I spin my wheels futher, is this double output even possible?

If it is, any suggestions of the best way to proceed would be appreciated.
