in reply to HTML::Template create table

Alternatively I'd like to suggest HTML::Template::Compiled. In your script you just need to say:
my $htc = HTML::Template::Compiled->new(filename => "template_whthr.tm +pl"); $htc->param( table => $table ); print $htc->output;
Because it's possible to call methods on objects in HTC you just need the following in your template:
<%= table.html %>
If you prefer your own formatting, it's should be possible to subclass Data::Table to use an own to_html-method.

    Thanks for the suggestion. I'll try how it works as it'll improve my understanding of the module and it is more direct as what I'm currently doing. That is, I create the table from Data::Table and do:
    print OUT $table->html
    and then include it with the following in my template.
    <TMPL_INCLUDE NAME="snow.html">
    in my template.
    I'll have to see how this subclass Data::Table is working..? I'm definitely planning to use my own formatting with CSS and stuff like that.
    Thanks
