if you are using H::T::E you can leave your output formatting to the template, and
leave your Perl code as a single loop (with no embedded loops). eg:
my @loop;
for ... {
push @loop, something;
}
$t->param(loop => [EMAIL PROTECTED]);
<!-- want 3 columns -->
<table ...>
<TMPL_LOOP loop>
<TMPL_IF EXPR="(__counter % 3) == 1">
<tr>
</TMPL_IF>
<td>
<TMPL_VAR blah>
</td>
<TMPL_IF EXPR="(__counter % 3) == 0">
</tr>
</TMPL_IF>
</TMPL_LOOP>
</table>
In this example, the formatting out the HTML is completly in the hands of the template
-> the Perl code need not know anything about how the array will get displayed.

PS. I use it to make a 3-column display of an image gallery -
