NAME

6       CGI::Application::Plugin::FillInForm - integrate with HTML::FillInForm
7

SYNOPSIS

9           use CGI::Application::Plugin::FillInForm (qw/fill_form/);
10
11           my $t = $self->load_tmpl('farm.html');
12           $t->param( organic => 'less_pesticides' );
13
14           return $self->fill_form( \$t->output );
15

DESCRIPTION

17       This plugin provides a mix-in method to make using HTML::FillInForm
18       more convenient.
19
20   fill_form()
21        # fill an HTML form with data in a hashref or from an object with with a param() method
22        my $filled_html = $self->fill_form($html, $data);
23
24        # ...or fill from a list of data sources
25        # (each item in the list can be either a hashref or an object)
26        my $filled_html = $self->fill_form($html, [$user, $group, $query]);
27
28        # ...or default to getting data from $self->query()
29        my $filled_html = $self->fill_form($html);
30
31        # extra fields will be passed on through:
32        my $filled_html = $self->fill_form($html, undef, fill_password => 0 );
33
34       This method provides an easier syntax for calling HTML::FillInForm, and
35       an intelligent default of using $self->query() as the default data
36       source.
37
38       By default, the mode param (usually 'rm') of every data source will be
39       ignored. This prevents accidently clobbering your run mode for the next
40       page, which may be stored in a hidden field.
41
42       $html must be a scalarref, or a reference to a scalarref.  $filled_html
43       will be a reference to a string.
44
45       Because this method only loads HTML::FillInForm if it's needed, it
46       should be reasonable to load it in a base class and always have it
47       available:
48
49         use CGI::Application::Plugin::FillInForm (qw/fill_form/);
