You cannot pass parameters to an include file.
You could, however, use template variables for that.
in perl
my $t = HTML::Template->new(...);
$t->param('jsVariable', $some_variable);
in your javascript code:
var jsVariable = <TMPL_VAR name="jsVariable">;
and voila!
Since you would not want your javascript code to be buggy, due to missing
variables, you may want to associate an object (so you can set default
values) instead of setting params directly in perl... Or just make sure all
required variables are set... or use the query method of HTML::Template to
figure out what's required...
Lots of options for what, I think, you want to do. I recommend, as always,
reading the manual closely.
