But the above is really ugly, and I gotta believe there's a better approach (that I'm too dense to recognize)
Yeah, I know, it seems like there should be a better solution. In fact, due to the limitations of HTML, there are only a series of equally sucky solutions. What you have above is as good as any. Blame W3C.
I would recommend checking out HTML::FillInForm for your situation - it'll take care of those radio buttons and select boxes, since you're rehashing the same form if you didn't receive valid input.
Something like this un-tested code:
# You're processing the input from the form...
if ( bad_input( $query ) ) {
$template = HTML::Template->new(
'filename' => 'previous_steps_template.TMPL',
'die_on_bad_params' => 0,
);$fif = HTML::FillInForm->new;
print $fif->fill(
'scalarref' => $template->output,
'fobject' => $query
);exit; }
You'll be amazed how cool FillInForm will work ... you won't need to do that TMPL_VAR stuff inside the form fields ... FillInForm will handle all that for you.
