Trouble with the arrow operator("->") in custom tags

[Christopher Brown]

Hi,

 

This could be really simple or really easy.

 

I want to write a custom tag that renders the content of the tag only if the 'test' argument evaluates to be true.  I want it to work something like this:

 

<asp:Test test="$Session->{User}">

    The Session User Object Exists

</asp:Test>

 

 

Where the Perl code is:

 

sub asp::Test {

 

    my ($args, $content) = @_;
 
     if ( eval( $args->{test} ) != 0  ) {
         $Response->Write("$content"); 

     }

 

}

 

The problem here is that the parser recognizes the ">" of the arrow operator "->" as the tag closure.  Has anyone experienced similar troubles?  Is there a good (easy) solution?

 

Thanks In Advance,

 

Chris
