Thanks, punkish!

I did a dump of @options.

# This dumped output of options is

#$VAR1 = { 'school' => 'Admiralty Primary', 'school_id' => '1' };
#$VAR2 = { 'school' => 'Ahmad Ibrahim Primary', 'school_id' => '2' };
#$VAR3 = { 'school' => 'Anderson Primary', 'school_id' => '3' }; 

# the relevant template is

# note that the school_id in <select name="school_id"> is 
# hard-coded whereas the one in <tmpl_var name=school_id>">
# is a number supplied via @options

<select name="school_id"><option selected value="1"><option selected v
+alue="0">Select<tmpl_loop name=options>
<option value="<tmpl_var name=school_id>"><tmpl_var escape=html name=s
+chool></option></tmpl_loop>
</select></td></tr>

The above works with the template but I'm not sure if I'm missing something. Note that %hash is passed to &generate (thanks to djantzen for the map) which generates a list which is then supplied to the param of H::T.

• Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
• 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).
• Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
