Hi Sam and all,
I've patched Template.pm version 2.6 so that it can now escape Javascript
strings too. You can do that by passing the option ESCAPE=JS into a
TMPL_VAR.
ESCAPE=HMTL and ESCAPE=URI are already supported, but I often have to
display Javascript alerts and create dynamic DHTML/Javascript menus from
data generated by a perl script. I feel that the ESCAPE=JS option is the
only feature lacking from HTML::Template. With this option, HTML::Template
is capable of escaping the 3 most common string formats in web applications:
URLs, HTML, and Javascript.
For those interested in how this works:
you can test this feature here:

and you can download the 'unofficial' patched Template.pm v2.6 here:
http://www.skybound.nl/cgi-bin/download.cgi/HTML-Template-2.6_js.tar.gz
So my proposal is: please include this option in the next official version.
