Template::Plugin::CGI - Interface to the CGI module
[% USE CGI %] [% CGI.param('parameter') %]
[% USE things = CGI %] [% things.param('name') %]
# see CGI docs for other methods provided by the CGI object
This is a very simple Template Toolkit Plugin interface to the CGI module. A CGI object will be instantiated via the following directive:
[% USE CGI %]
CGI methods may then be called as follows:
[% CGI.header %] [% CGI.param('parameter') %]
An alias can be used to provide an alternate name by which the object should be identified.
[% USE mycgi = CGI %] [% mycgi.start_form %] [% mycgi.popup_menu({ Name => 'Color' Values => [ 'Green' 'Black' 'Brown' ] }) %]
Parenthesised parameters to the USE directive will be passed to the plugin constructor:
[% USE cgiprm = CGI('uid=abw&name=Andy+Wardley') %] [% cgiprm.param('uid') %]
In addition to all the methods supported by the CGI module, this plugin defines the following.
params()
This method returns a reference to a hash of all the CGI parameters. Any parameters that have multiple values will be returned as lists.
[% USE CGI('user=abw&item=foo&item=bar') %]
[% CGI.params.user %] # abw [% CGI.params.item.join(', ') %] # foo, bar
