Hello all I'm new to the list. I've been using TT2 heavily for about a year now and I love it, thank you for all your hard work. Though recently I have run in to a snag... it's not the code but more how to extend the code. We've had a request to have our site spit out XML vs HTML when the user requests it. So far the thinking is that Apache can set an ENV var xml=1 when you go to xml.host or the user can ask for xml via including xml=1 in the get vars. In an effort to not have to go back and retouch all our code to include this check is to extend things so that this check becomes global. My initial though was to extend Template->process(), but I cant seem to find a way to get the callers cgi object to check params? Then I though that I was over thinking this. I dug thru the archives for the past year and the closest thing that I could find was Bill Moseley's thread about Template->Provider.
Am I over thinking this? Is Template->Process the best place for this kind of check? How would I go about importing the callers cgi object? By the time we get to process it seems like I've lost access to Apache? Any who, any nudge in the right direction would be greatly appreciated. -- benh~ _______________________________________________ templates mailing list [email protected] http://lists.template-toolkit.org/mailman/listinfo/templates
