SYNOPSIS Index  ] [ Modules  ] [ Top  ]

    [% USE CGI %]
    [% CGI.param('parameter') %]
    [% USE things = CGI %]
    [% things.param('name') %]
    
    # see CGI docs for other methods provided by the CGI object

DESCRIPTION Index  ] [ Modules  ] [ Top  ]

This is a very simple Template Toolkit Plugin interface to the CGI module. A CGI object will be instantiated via the following directive:

    [% USE CGI %]

CGI methods may then be called as follows:

    [% CGI.header %]
    [% CGI.param('parameter') %]

An alias can be used to provide an alternate name by which the object should be identified.

    [% USE mycgi = CGI %]
    [% mycgi.start_form %]
    [% mycgi.popup_menu({ Name   => 'Color'
			  Values => [ 'Green' 'Black' 'Brown' ] }) %]

Parenthesised parameters to the USE directive will be passed to the plugin constructor: [% USE cgiprm = CGI('uid=abw&name=Andy+Wardley') %] [% cgiprm.param('uid') %]
