Did you try associate first? From the docs:


   associate - this option allows you to inherit the
   parameter values from other objects.  The only
   requirement for the other object is that it have a
   param() method that works like HTML::Template's
   param().  A good candidate would be a CGI.pm query
   object.  Example:

     my $query = new CGI;
     my $template = HTML::Template->new(
        filename => 'template.tmpl',
        associate => $query
     );

   Now, $template->output() will act as though

     $template->param('FormField', $cgi->param('FormField'));

   had been specified for each key/value pair that
   would be provided by the $cgi->param() method.
   Parameters you set directly take precedence over
   associated parameters.

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.
