[htmltmpl] Writing an extension for HTML::Template - how to do it?

[Webmaster Techcode.N. <web...@te...>]

Hello folks!

Don't know if it's just me or documentation of HTML::Template::Extension =
isn't good. Eitherway, I can't figure out how to write an extenstion for =
it, that I need for my project.=20

I work with CGI::Application, and I wan't to be able to use (reusable) =
objects in my templates.

For instance :

<tmpl_plugin name=3D"SomeName(param1, param2)">

My filter would find SomeName module (Prefix such as =
MyApp::Plugin::SomeName) make an instance of it and call method - say =
named run. And place returned value instead of this tag.

Think of it as another template file that is included but it has some =
processing ... That way I can create one module/plugin and use it =
througth whole site/application.


If I don't figure this out soon - I will have to give a shot to =
HTML::Template::Expr and register a function with it (<tmpl_var =
name=3D"plugin(SomeName, param1, param2)">).

Thanks.
