As far I know (I'm a today-newcomer on the list - but I've done my best
to read previous messages in archives), no one speaks really about
HTML-Template (from Sam Tregar) . What I like (and what seems to
interest you):
- HTML-TAGs style : <TMPL_TAG> (thus you can preview the design in a
browser)
- Few and simple tags
- loops (to handle tables)
- includes (So, there's at least another one than DynamicTemplate :)
- cache system (who works with mod_perl with IPC system)
- (obviously, no embedded perl in html, so it's highly maintenable)
Hope this helps
