OK, I've obtained the Badger book, and see this example. It's nice, and the output would be fine for my purposes. Unfortunately, though, it requires that you know the name(s) of the keys of the hash passed to Template.pm. Is there any way to make a generic template that will dump all the data available to the template?
In other words, is there something like [% FOREACH _root.keys %] where "_root" is a reference to the anon hash passed to Template.pm? - Mark. -- Mark Thomas [EMAIL PROTECTED] Internet Systems Architect User Technology Associates, Inc. $_=q;KvtuyboopuifeyQQfeemyibdlfee;; y.e.s. ;y+B-x+A-w+s; ;y;y; ;;print;; > -----Original Message----- > From: Jeff Anderson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Friday, February 06, 2004 3:00 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: [Templates] Turning templates over to a non-programmer > > > Dunno about the graphics stuff, but the New Template book > (Badger book) has a small section that shows you how to build > an easy to read HTML debug page.
