Re: is it possible to use var in include

Michael,

In my experience, the only way to make that work is by making two passes 
through HTML::Template, creating a custom filter on the first pass.

So your template syntax would look like this:

[TMPL_INCLUDE NAME=<TMPL_VAR NAME=mod>]

The first pass would set the 'mod' param, but ignore the outer tags.  The 
second pass would use a filter to convert all the [TMPL] tags to standard 
<TMPL> tags, and then behave as normal.

Something like the following perl-pseudo:

$tmpl->param(mod=>'include.tmpl');
my $pass = $tmpl->output();

my $tmpl2 = HTML::Template->new(scalarref => $pass,
                                 filter =>
 	sub { $_ =~ s/\[(TMPL[^\]]+)\]/<$1>/gis; });

$tmpl2->param(%other_vars);

return $tmpl2->output();


HTH,
