[htmltmpl] How to manipulate rows in returned resultset

[Kapoor, N. <nis...@xc...>]

For populating loops, I get the resultset from db, and assign it =
directly to the loop_var. This works wonderfully for most cases, except =
where there is a need to process each row before assigning it to the =
template. One particular case is where I am retrieving a resultset after =
a search query, and I need to highlight the text that was searched for.

Is there a way I can continue to use the 'single' assignment, and still =
achieve this objective?

Thanks,

Here is some code snippet to explain it more:

my $data =3D &getDataFromDB;
$template->param(myLoopVar =3D> $data);  #preferred way

#BUT, if I need to bold the 'search text', I need to iterate through the =
loop
my @loopData=3D();
foreach my $rec (@{$data}) {
  my %loopRow;
  $rec->{title} =3D~ s/(\b$searchText\b)/<b>$1<\/b>/ig;
  $loopRow{title} =3D $rec->{title};
  push @loopData, \%loopRow;
}
$template->param(myLoopVar =3D> \@loopData);
