Sam, et all:
I would like to write a patch to allow single XHTML / HTML compliant
variable substitutions. Any chance something like this would get
implemented? I have used {%var_name%}, implemented as a filter for quite
some time.
Currently it is impossible to add vars inside HTML tags and validate the
HTML. Also you cannot edit templates in wysiwyg mode without pre/post
processing.
This doesn't really matter as much with the looping and logic constructs as
HTML comment style tags work okay here.
Thanks,
Mike

Variable syntax
2000-05-21 02:03
I used HTML::Template for a project earlier this year, and I was very happy
with it. The only thing I would suggest is, some people might prefer a
different delimeter for the syntax, than the "<" + ">" ones -- the problem
for me is, the designer [I would be working with] cannot see the current
placeholders when the view it in a browser.
My suggestion is simply to have this be configurable--simply allow the
option of setting start and end delims. to a desired string. Then this would
work for everybody.
Thanks.

Maybe it would be better to make special debug perl-script which will
replace all "<TMPL_VAR xxx>" to TMPL_VAR xxx and show the result in the
browser.
I could attach this script as a handler for *.tmpl and to view the templates
correctly din the browser:
http://localhost/xxx.tmpl

I have run into this problem for a number of different reasons, including
XHTML HTML validation, wysiwyg editing, and many other more site specific
ones.
I am using {%var_name%} and writing a regular expression, but I think this
would be a major improvement.
