I like to use simpler tags for variables in templates so I use the filter to turn %~foo~% into <TMPL_VAR NAME="foo"> like so:
use HTML::Template;
my $tmpl = HTML::Template->new(
scalarref => \do { local $/; <DATA> },
die_on_bad_params => 0,
loop_context_vars => 1,
filter => sub {
my $s=shift;
$$s=~s/%~([^~]+)~%/<TMPL_VAR NAME="$1">/g;
},
);
$tmpl->param( userid => 99999 );
$tmpl->param( username => 'foo' );
print $tmpl->output;
__DATA__
<a href="%~userid~%">%~username~%</a>
is easier to edit than
<a href="<TMPL_VAR NAME="userid">"><TMPL_VAR NAME="username"></a>
The heck with patents, here's how to protect your thoughts: <tinfoil>.o0(Martians can't read this)</tinfoil>

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
