I have two distinct questions concerning TMPL_LOOP substitution. I hope you
can help me with either or both.
First off, in reading the documentation, it appeared to me that I could use
an array of references to hashes to fill in a TMPL_LOOP. I'd simply create
my array, then call $template->param(LOOP_NAME => \@array). However, this is
not working properly for me; I'm wondering if it's because of how I'm
constructing my array.
Basically, I'm using DBI's fetchrow_hashref() method to return a reference
to a hash, and then plunking that into an array. Thus, I can call
$array[x]->{keyname} and get a value, no problem. Would I be able to
properly use this with TMPL_LOOP, or do I need an array of hashes, not
references to hashes?
Alternately, I've thought this problem could be due to me not using all of
the keys in the hash as TMPL_VARs. Would this cause a problem?
Second, I have several TMPL_LOOPs which are named "Q1", "Q2", etc., each of
which contain the same TMPL_NAME variables. I'd like to be able to just loop
through them and perform param()s on them; I figured I could simply build a
string with the name of the TMPL_LOOP, and then pass it to param(), like so:
for ($x=0; $x<5; $x++)
{
$base = "Q";
$name = $base.$x;
$template->param($name, \@array);
}
Even when I manually make a string that matches the name of a TMPL_LOOP,
though, it fails to function; it fills in "SCALAR<memory address>". Is it
possible to do what I'm thinking of? If so, how?
Thanks,
Alex Kirk
