Hi

This is an extension on this theme so I am adding this query here in the hope the thread will bump in some way and someone might be able to offer some advice.

I have this CGI::FormBuider object instantiation

my $form = CGI::FormBuilder->new(
                template => {                             ## the templ
+ate being used
                             type=> 'TT2',
                             template => 'method1.tt',
                             variable => 'form',
                             engine => {
                                       INCLUDE_PATH => './templates',
                                       RELATIVE => '1',
                                       },
                             data   => {
                                       twinkle   => 'this is a test',
                                       recaptcha => $recaptcha,
                                       },
                             },

                id     => 'form',
                fields => \@formfields ,                  ## declares 
+where the formfields can be found
                method => 'post',                         ## the HTML 
+form method
                action => $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME},              ## ensure th
+e action is set properly
                sticky => 1,
                #debug => 2,                               ## sets the
+ debug level int[0,3] ?
);

Specifically please note the data element in the template hash.

I set my $recaptcha = $crc->get_html(PUBIC_KEY);, $crc being my Captcha::reCAPTCHA object, and have verified that $recaptcha does hold the expected markup.

When I write [% twinkle %] in the template I get the expected result - i.e. the string is printed out.

When I try [% recaptcha %] I get nothing out. If I print $recaptcha; after printing the form headers, I do get the recaptcha showing.

I am trying to glean why from http://search.cpan.org/grep?cpanid=NWIGER&release=CGI-FormBuilder-3.0501&string=data&i=1&n=1&C=0#lib/CGI/FormBuilder/Template/TT2.pm but I wondered if anyone has similar experience with the problem of passing non-form variable data to a form using CGI::FormBuilder and TT2 and let me know if I am on a hiding to nothing here.

Regards and thanks in advance

Lesley

Update: I also added teststr => $test, to the data hash and then added [% teststr %] to the template and achieved no output with this construct either.
