Template::Plugin::HTML - Plugin to create HTML elements SYNOPSIS
[% USE HTML %] [% HTML.escape("if (a < b && c > d) ..." %] [% HTML.element(table => { border => 1, cellpadding => 2 }) %] [% HTML.attributes(border => 1, cellpadding => 2) %] DESCRIPTION
The "HTML" plugin is a very basic plugin, implementing a few useful methods for generating HTML. METHODS
escape(text) Returns the source text with any HTML reserved characters such as "<", ">", etc., correctly esacped to their entity equivalents. attributes(hash) Returns the elements of the hash array passed by reference correctly formatted (e.g. values quoted and correctly escaped) as attributes for an HTML element. element(type, attributes) Generates an HTML element of the specified type and with the attributes provided as an optional hash array reference as the second argument or as named arguments. [% HTML.element(table => { border => 1, cellpadding => 2 }) %] [% HTML.element('table', border=1, cellpadding=2) %] [% HTML.element(table => attribs) %] DEBUGGING
The HTML plugin accepts a "sorted" option as a constructor argument which, when set to any true value, causes the attributes generated by the "attributes()" method (either directly or via "element()") to be returned in sorted order. Order of attributes isn't important in HTML, but this is provided mainly for the purposes of debugging where it is useful to have attributes generated in a deterministic order rather than whatever order the hash happened to feel like returning the keys in. [% USE HTML(sorted=1) %] [% HTML.element( foo => { charlie => 1, bravo => 2, alpha => 3 } ) %] generates: <foo alpha="3" bravo="2" charlie="1"> AUTHOR

Template::Plugin::XML::Style(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Template::Plugin::XML::Style(3pm) NAME
Template::Plugin::XML::Style - Simple XML stylesheet transfomations SYNOPSIS
[% USE xmlstyle table = { attributes = { border = 0 cellpadding = 4 cellspacing = 1 } } %] [% FILTER xmlstyle %] <table> <tr> <td>Foo</td> <td>Bar</td> <td>Baz</td> </tr> </table> [% END %] DESCRIPTION
This plugin defines a filter for performing simple stylesheet based transformations of XML text. Named parameters are used to define those XML elements which require transformation. These may be specified with the USE directive when the plugin is loaded and/or with the FILTER directive when the plugin is used. This example shows how the default attributes "border="0"" and "cellpadding="4"" can be added to <table> elements. [% USE xmlstyle table = { attributes = { border = 0 cellpadding = 4 } } %] [% FILTER xmlstyle %] <table> ... </table> [% END %] This produces the output: <table border="0" cellpadding="4"> ... </table> Parameters specified within the USE directive are applied automatically each time the "xmlstyle" FILTER is used. Additional parameters passed to the FILTER directive apply for only that block. [% USE xmlstyle table = { attributes = { border = 0 cellpadding = 4 } } %] [% FILTER xmlstyle tr = { attributes = { valign="top" } } %] <table> <tr> ... </tr> </table> [% END %] Of course, you may prefer to define your stylesheet structures once and simply reference them by name. Passing a hash reference of named parameters is just the same as specifying the named parameters as far as the Template Toolkit is concerned. [% style_one = { table = { ... } tr = { ... } } style_two = { table = { ... } td = { ... } } style_three = { th = { ... } tv = { ... } } %] [% USE xmlstyle style_one %] [% FILTER xmlstyle style_two %] # style_one and style_two applied here [% END %] [% FILTER xmlstyle style_three %] # style_one and style_three applied here [% END %] Any attributes defined within the source tags will override those specified in the style sheet. [% USE xmlstyle div = { attributes = { align = 'left' } } %] [% FILTER xmlstyle %] <div>foo</div> <div align="right">bar</div> [% END %] The output produced is: <div align="left">foo</div> <div align="right">bar</div> The filter can also be used to change the element from one type to another. [% FILTER xmlstyle th = { element = 'td' attributes = { bgcolor='red' } } %] <tr> <th>Heading</th> </tr> <tr> <td>Value</td> </tr> [% END %] The output here is as follows. Notice how the end tag "</th>" is changed to "</td>" as well as the start tag. <tr> <td bgcolor="red">Heading</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Value</td> </tr> You can also define text to be added immediately before or after the start or end tags. For example: [% FILTER xmlstyle table = { pre_start = '<div align="center">' post_end = '</div>' } th = { element = 'td' attributes = { bgcolor='red' } post_start = '<b>' pre_end = '</b>' } %] <table> <tr> <th>Heading</th> </tr> <tr> <td>Value</td> </tr> </table> [% END %] The output produced is: <div align="center"> <table> <tr> <td bgcolor="red"><b>Heading</b></td> </tr> <tr> <td>Value</td> </tr> </table> </div> AUTHOR
