Markapl::Helpers - Practical helper methods

DESCRIPTION

This module exports several useful functions that are meant to be used inside templates.

FUNCTIONS

linklist($label1 => $url1, $label2 => $url2, ...)

Take pairs of labels and urls, return a structure like this:

<ul>
  <li><a href="$url1">$label1</a></li>
  <li><a href="$url2">$label2</a></li>
  ...
</ul>

cells($item1, $item2, ...)

Wrap <td></td> tag around each item in the argument list. Useful when showing tabular data. For example:

table {
    while(my @data = $dbh->fetchrow_array) {
      cells(@data);
    }
}

heads($item1, $item2, ...)

Similar to cells, but output seris of <th></th> tag instead. For example:

table {
    heads( qw(Name Age Gender Height Weight) );
    while(my @data = $dbh->fetchrow_array) {
      cells(@data);
    }
}
