Re: Generating HTML- CGI.pm

I use CGI::Application with CGI::Simple and HTML::Template and I find it works very well.

I may be missing something but couldn't you combine the two?

my $t = HTML::Template->new(filename => q{tmpl.html});

$t->param(
  input_field => get_input_field(),
);

print $t->output;

sub get_input_field{
  # do something with YAML
}

That's what I'm doing :) Just that in your example get_input_field would load the YAML then use CGI.pm to make the input field. I think I'll just roll my own unless I come across something lightweight on CPAN. Lyle	[reply]
