HTML::Template and __ODD__ Colin Walls 07-22-2005

I have the following code in one of my template files

<tbody id='interfaceData'>
<!-- TMPL_LOOP NAME="interfaceData" -->
<tr <!-- TMPL_IF NAME="__ODD__" -->class="alternateRow"<!-- /TMPL_IF --> >
<td><!-- TMPL_VAR NAME="interface" --></td>
<td><!-- TMPL_VAR NAME="if_type_description" --></td>
<td>
<a href='efs.cgi?rm=listInterfaceDetails;&amp;interface_id=<!--
TMPL_VAR NAME="interface_id" -->'
class='button'>Details</a>
</td>
</tr>
<!-- /TMPL_LOOP -->
</tbody>

The loop works, all the variables insert properly. The only thing that
doesn't happen is the alternate row class style being applied to odd rows
in the table. All I get is the tag "<tr >" appearing on each row.

Could anyone clue me up as to where I am going wrong?

Your code looks fine to me so my deduction would be that the __ODD__
is not present and that's why you're getting a blank in the "<tr >".
The most obvious cause of this would be that you've forgotten to set
the loop_context_vars parameter to a true value when calling
HTML::Template->new() or one of its sisters.

By the way, there's a mailing list for HTML::Template here:

Thanks for that, a case of RTFM. My only excuse is that I was using
templates via CGI::Application.

Mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa.
