I am using HTML::Template in an application where I would like pass it a hash of hashes. Sadly, it doesnt support this type of structure.

Has anyone out there a module, or even a subroutine, that will parse a hash of hashes into a set of heirarchical template variables?

The alternative is to write something that "flattens" out the data, but this would be rather "not general purpose" which is what I would prefer.

My structure looks like this (it is only a part of a much larger structure):

$VAR1 = {
          'apptimeupdated' => '20040315145142',
          'appdate' => '2004-03-15',
          'personellid' => '0',
          'appscref' => '',
          'apptime' => '16:45:00',
          'appdesc' => '',
          'appid' => '270',
          'apptype' => {
                         'taxlc' => '0',
                         'apt_requ_qual' => '',
                         'apt_abbr_desc' => '001',
                         'taxst' => '0',
                         'apt_defstatus' => {
                                              'name' => 'Pending',
                                              'css_class' => 'pending'
+,
                                              'id' => '1',
                                              'graphic' => '/images/te
+nt.jpg'
                                            },
                         'taxfed' => '0',
                         'value' => '50',
                         'apt_full_desc' => 'Round, regular - 18 holes
+',
                         'apt_requ_prepay' => '1',
                         'apt_requ_option' => '',
                         'providerid' => '4',
                         'id' => '1'
                       },
          'appamountpaid' => '0',
}
