Oops ... sorry Mark, looks like you did send this to list and not just me. ;)
As i said in my previous email (which only Mark saw) ... just use the scalar
output of Data::Dumper and call it a day. However, the example _I_ spoke of
does give a generic template. Here it is again:
<table>
[% FOREACH key = hash.keys %]
[% val = hash.$key %]
<tr>
<th>[% key %]</td>
<td>
[% IF val.keys %]
[% INCLUDE debug.tt hash=val %]
[% ELSE %]
[% val %]
[% END %]
</td>
</tr>
[% END %]
</table>
Good luck ... and don't waste your time on this ... it's silly when
Data::Dumper or similar already does a decent job, decent enough that i use it
here at work for debugging our Web App.
