ESCAPE=URL, this should work, right?

[Jeroen Ruigrok van der Werven]

Hi,

been using HTML::Template for some things now, and it has been working perfectly.

Now, I was trying to use the ESCAPE=URL parameter like this:

<A HREF="editcustomer.pl?edit=1&customer=<TMPL_VAR ESCAPE="URL" NAME="name">">Edit data</A>

But this still leaves the expanded `name' variable with spaces instead of +'s for the spaces.  What obvious mistake am I making?
This is when I am using HTML::Template 2.2 with Perl 5.003_05 on FreeBSD 4.2-STABLE.

Thanks in advance,

Bah,

of course I meant: perl 5.005_03.

And don't you love answering your own questions?

Anyway, seems IE 5.5 on this NT box only encodes the URL _AFTER_ clicking on it.  w3m on my FreeBSD box shows it immediately.

Gotta love timewasters like that.
