display hash in an html template

rsennat has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hi All,
I have an hash of arrays which needs to be put into an HTML Template. So that hash of arrays may contain text value or selection box or drop down box.

I could do it but its really very complex. For each and every selection box, I need to create a TMPL VAR and display the values.

Is there a simpler way to do this??

Thanks.

You may want to consult the FAQ section of HTML::Template's POD. Specifically... Q: What's the best way to create a <select> form element using HTML::Template? Read more... (1157 Bytes) --k.	[reply]

Or something like this.... `my $ary_ref = [ { value=>1, text=>'val1'}, { value=>2, text=>'val2'}, ]; .. $template->param( select = $ary_ref, ... ); ### .tmpl <select> <TMPL_LOOP NAME=select> <option value="<TMPL_VAR NAME=value>"><TMPL_VAR NAME=text></TMPL_LOOP> </select>` [download]	[reply] [d/l]
