But I DO like having to state:
[% FOREACH hash = array %]
<tr>
<td>[% hash.member1 %]</td>
<td>[% hash.member2 %]</td>
</tr>
[% END %]
Being able to completely separate the data from the HTML like that
rocks.
Template Toolkit gives just enough programming tools that a good HTML
coder
can do a lot with it and not need to bother me (the Perl guy) when they
want
to change the format. Embedding Perl means bothering me. I don't want
to
be bothered with prettying up a page.
