Doh!! I appear to be all set Sam..

I couldn't easily take my existing code out as an example as its spread
across 2 modules so I spent a few mins creating a test script. When I
finished, it worked just fine..

To make a long story short, the loop wasn't being properly defined due to a
earlier change, the "associate" had nothing to do with it - I just had a
brain lapse between making a change and trying to get something new to work.

Sorry about that, but hey... Its working now :)..

I'm using Sebastien's suggestion of:
my $t2 = new HTML::Template(filename  => "email_purchase_results.tmpl",
                                                   associate  => $t1,
           );

I have a bunch of places where (like a shopping cart) the user is selecting
multiple things through multiple form pages, once its done and everything is
displayed to the user for conformation/receipt, I have to email it to
multiple parties (again like a shopping cart).

Using the above I can now have multiple email templates which I can assign
all the values of what was just displayed, add some params if needed etc..
and just send it off as a HTML email...
No more logic and nothing more then a couple of extra lines of code to do
emails!!

Maybe nothing special to some, or should have been obvious to me - but I
wish I figured this out about a year ago as I would have saved hours upon
hours of specialized email creation code, never mind about 5000 db hits a
day that I will just go away!!

Sam, you're the man.. H::T is awesome!!

Thanks
-Chris
