in reply to Advice Choosing a Templating System

I have used HTML::Template (with CGI::Application, which is a very good combination.). I had earlier used Mason, briefly. I found HTML::Template to be more simpler and easy to use.

    I'm also an advocate of HTML::Template. I find it follows the MVC philsophy very well, ensuring content is kept separate from code as much as possible. That translates to faster application deployment and easier maintenance.

    Combined with CGI::Application, they also work well in mod_perl environments.

    I agree. I've just wrapped up a little project that would have taken a dog's age doing it in my "old way". It ended up taking a mere two days, including learning HTML::Template, CGI::Application, and Perl IPC. And it's much more maintainable... :-)
