Template::Plugin::CGI3pm
Interface to the cgi module
Usage
[% USE CGI %][% CGI.param('parameter') %][% USE things = CGI %][% things.param('name') %]# see CGI docs for other methods provided by the CGI object
Overview
This is a very simple Template Toolkit Plugin interface to the "CGI" module. A "CGI" object will be instantiated via the following directive:
[% USE CGI %]"CGI" methods may then be called as follows:
[% CGI.header %][% CGI.param('parameter') %]
An alias can be used to provide an alternate name by which the object should be identified.
[% USE mycgi = CGI %][% mycgi.start_form %][% mycgi.popup_menu({ Name => 'Color'Values => [ 'Green' 'Black' 'Brown' ] }) %]
Parenthesised parameters to the "USE" directive will be passed to the plugin constructor:
[% USE cgiprm = CGI('uid=abw&name=Andy+Wardley') %][% cgiprm.param('uid') %]
Methods
In addition to all the methods supported by the "CGI" module, this plugin defines the following.
params()
This method returns a reference to a hash of all the "CGI" parameters. Any parameters that have multiple values will be returned as lists.
[% USE CGI('user=abw&item=foo&item=bar') %][% CGI.params.user %] # abw[% CGI.params.item.join(', ') %] # foo, bar
