You know, you can do it quite easily without extending HTML::Template.
Here's how I do it. Say I have modes "a", "b" and "c", each of which
will produce different text. (Never mind different languages - I use
this trick for whole different pages in a multiscreen application.) Then
I just turn off die_on_bad_params, and set:
$tmpl->param(mode => $mode,
"mode.$mode" => 1);
Then the template has:
<tmpl_if name=mode.a>
text for mode A
</tmpl_if>
<tmpl_if name=mode.b>
text for mode B
</tmpl_if>
...and so on. You get the idea...
