Hi all,

I like the clean design of HTML::Template very much.. That it is 
possible to install it on a webhost easily is also an advantage over, 
for example, Template Toolkit. Nevertheless I would be interested in the 
ability to put functions or classes as content in a variable, like it's 
possible in the Template-Toolkit. IMO this would be fully compatible to 
the approach of not mixing programming and content, content-designers 
doesn't even need to know, that the variable they are using isn't a 
scalar or an array!

In my opinion there are often problems in using Templates, which only 
can be solved by such an approach. An Example: If I want a table with 
alternating table-row colors, I can simply write a class which returns 
one color after the other when it's called by the template. And I simply 
can use one instance for each table-column! So it's also possible to 
delete or add rows without affecting the alternating colors... I can't 
imagine such a simple solution without this approach.

Maybe someone knows the internals of HTML::Template good enough to 
evaluate if this would be easy to implement..

Thanks, Michael
