Hmmmm ... personally, i would use a templating system for
this kind of problem, but ... if you don't mind the
perfomance hit, you could point each key in your hash to
an anonymous subroutine that takes a single arg and calls the proper CGI subroutine:
my $thisrow;
my @rows;
my %fields = (
name => sub { textfield(-name=>$_[0],-size=>50,-maxlength=>80
+) },
email => sub { textfield(-name=>$_[0],-size=>50,-maxlength=>80
+) },
site_name => sub { textfield(-name=>$_[0],-size=>50,-maxlength=>80
+) },
descripton => sub { textfield(-name=>$_[0],-size=>50,-maxlength=>80
+) },
comments => sub { textarea(-name=>$_[0],-cols=>50,-rows=>10) },
);
foreach my $key (keys %fields) {
$thisrow = td({-align=>'right',-valign=>'TOP'},$key)
. td({-align=>'left',-valign=>'TOP'}, $fields{$key}->($key))
;
push(@rows,$thisrow);
}
However, i would never use that in any of my code. The way i
see it, using CGI.pm HTML generation methods IS my
abstraction. Wrapping that into something else seems a bit
silly. Have you tried HTML::Template yet? You might
find that it is all you need. ;)
p.s. don't forget that hashes are not ordered - you might want to try a list of hashes instead
