Check out HTML::FillInForm, it's great! It has code that takes your
form variables and the raw HTML and adds the default values to the
form elements. Very handy. Here's some code from the documentation:
my $q = new CGI;
$q->param("name","John Smith");
my $fif = new HTML::FillInForm;
my $output = $fif->fill(scalarref => \$html,
fobject => $q);
Note that HTML::FillInForm is directly supported in Apache::ASP.
Other toolkits may support it as well.
