Hello, I am experimenting with templating a table. I have no issues with fixed data structures... but now I need to generate a table with HTML::Template where the number and the names of the columns may vary. I generate my data like this:
my $dictionary = [
{
'Spanish' => 'uno',
'English' => 'one',
'Italian' => 'uno',
},
{
'Spanish' => 'dos',
'English' => 'twho',
'Italian' => 'due',
},
{
'Spanish' => 'tres',
'English' => 'Three',
'Italian' => 'tre',
}
];
use HTML::Template;
my $template = HTML::Template->new(filename => 'dictionary.tmpl');
$template->param(DICTIONARY => $dictionary);
$template->output;
However, my data may also look like this:
my $dictionary = [
{
'Spanish' => 'uno',
'French' => '1',
},
{
'Spanish' => 'dos',
'French' => '2',
},
{
'Spanish' => 'tres',
'French' => '3',
}
];
How could I template this?

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).
