What I usually do is add another step and instead of stopping at the
template, I pass the template's output into HTML::FillInForm, which is
great for filling out ANY input fields (pop-up menus, etc).

What is the best way to generate input fields pre-filled with dynamic contents

when the template file is viewed in a browser without the script?
<input type=text name=my_text value="<TMPL_VAR text_value>" />
works for text fields, but its not so trivial with the pop-up menus.
Of course, I can generate input fields with Perl using either CGI or
CGI::FormBuilder.
But then, your template will look like this:
<p>Your full name: <tmpl_var field-name>
<p>Your email address: <tmpl_var field-email>
<p>Choose a password: <tmpl_var field-password>
<p>Please confirm it: <tmpl_var field-confirm_password>
<p>Your home zipcode: <tmpl_var field-zipcode>
When the template file is viewed in a browser, the input fields are
not visible. If I write the code and ask an HTML web designer to work
on templates, it would be hard for the web designer to see what the
form looks like with the "invisible" fields.
Did anyone have this problem?
Thanks.
Arkady.
