The discussion of these changes is available in the mailing-list archive. If memory serves I didn't think that most of them required changes to HTML::Template itself. My feeling is that if HTML::Template::Expr could be done without changes to HTML::Template then there's really no limit on the changes that can be accomplished by a sub-class using filter. Put simply, HTML::Template has suffered from feature-creap through its life and it's nearly at the breaking point now. The current code-base won't remain maintainable with many more features added without a major rearchitecture. Someday maybe I'll do that and then all kinds of extension will be easier... -sam ------------------------------------------------------- The SF.Net email is sponsored by: Beat the post-holiday blues Get a FREE limited edition SourceForge.net t-shirt from ThinkGeek.
