Need Help??

in reply to Changing data structure with HTML::Template

Greetings jms53,

I think you'll need to change your data structure. HTML::Template expects to iterate through hashrefs in an array rather than arrayrefs.

$account->{transactions} = [ map { { line => $_ } } @transactions ];

push @transactions, {
    date    => $date, 
    type    => $type, 
    amount  => $amount, 
    balance => $new_balance
};

I updated my code as you showed, and the page now loads. However, the html sent to the browser doesn't contain any data for the table.

<table border="1"> 
       <tbody><tr>
       <td></td><td>Date</td><td>Type</td><td>Amount</td><td>Balance</
+td> 
       </tr>
     <tr><td>Transaction:</td>
     </tr>
   </tbody></table>

What I'm supposed to be seeing is more something along the lines of :
<tr><td>Transaction</td><td>2014-02-06</td><td>credit</td><td>400</td><td>1400</td></tr>

I have debugged the data to confirm it exists (my first project I was deleting my data on the first run, and then all subsequent runs yielded 0 results), and I'm not getting any complaints from the server. If you have any ideas, they are most welcome :)
