Thanks for the feedback. Before I get started on the html::template tutorial, I wanted to try a quick sample page using html::template. However, when I try it, I cannot get the tag in the html to process. Could someone take a look and let me know what you think I am doing incorrectly?
######################################## This is the .pl file #! /usr/bin/perl -w # nationalConsumerShoppingSurveyResults.pl use strict; use lib qw(/home/ahughes/myLibrary); use CGI qw(:standard escape escapeHTML); use CGI::Carp qw(fatalsToBrowser); use HTML::Template; my $bar = 'World'; my $template = HTML::Template->new(filename => 'results.tmpl'); $template->param(SECRET_MESSAGE => $bar); print $template->output; ######################################## This is the .tmpl file: <!-- results.tmpl --> <html> <head> <title>Untitled Document</title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> </head> <body bgcolor="#FFFFFF" text="#000000"> <h1>Hello <TMPL_VAR NAME=SECRET_MESSAGE></h1> </body> </html> ######################################## When I view the source of results I see the tag "<TMPL_VAR NAME=SECRET_MESSAGE>" where I expect to see "World". Any thoughts?
