Hi,

I would recommend you to use also another template system, aside of HTML::Template module for certain situations, as the transformations you need to do most times outweight the benefits of using HTML::Template, creating a code which is not so maintainable, and more centered to overcome the limitations of the module.

Update: seems to be that people are misunderstanding what I'm trying to say which is that for more complex structures than simple AoH, you end up transforming the data to make it work. I'm not saying in any means that the module is not nice and very useful, which is not the case. I also do use it a lot.
