2.0b3 and processing "input" fields
I can't get Embperl to "select" a dropdown list option if I import the options via Execute.
---- test.html ----
[- $dbgInput = 1 -]
<form>
<select name="Example">
<option value="1">One</option>
<option value="2">Two</option>
<option value="3">Three</option>
</select>
</form>
<form>
<select name="Example2">
[- Execute('options.html') ; -]
</select>
</form>
--- options.html (the included file ---
options.html:
<option value="1">One</option>
<option value="2">Two</option>
<option value="3">Three</option>
The problem is that in Example2, the option is not selected.
If I can test.html?Example=2&Example2=2 then the first form "option 2" is selected. However, there is no processing on Example2.
/tmp/embperl.log shows the selection of Example but there is nothing about Example2 in there...which leads me to suspect that the processing doesn't occur when you "import" the option list via an Execute statement.

Thank you, I will try this. Any ideas on the weird display of the foreach
loop I also sent along?

Yes, because Embperl 2 scans the two document independenly of each other, it
is not aware that the option tags, belongs to the select tag. I would return
an array that contains the options and display them in the main file:
[- Execute('options.html', \@val, \@txt) ; -]
<select name="Example2">
<option value="[+ $val[$row] +]">[+ $txt[$row] +]</option>
</select>
options.html:
[-
@{$param[0]} = (1,2,3) ;
@{$param[1]} = (One, Two, Three) ;
-]

Sorry, I missed this the first time. It's better change the subject line if
you have a new subject :-)

printing to OUT doesn't work correctly in 2.0b3. It will be fixed in 2.0b4.
Quoting README.v2 which comes with the Embperl 2 distribution:
The following things are not fully tested/working yet:
------------------------------------------------------
- [- exit -]
- safe namespaces
- print to OUT does not work correctly inside of loops

I also have another problem.
This works in 1.3.3
$Contacts is an array ref to hash refs (DB output)
[* foreach my $row (@$Contacts) { *]
<tr>
<td>
<a href="">[* print OUT $row->{'Company'} ; *]</a>
</td>
<td>
[*
print OUT $row->{'LastName'} ;
if ($row->{'FirstName'} and $row->{'LastName'}) {
print OUT ', ' ;
}
print OUT $row->{'FirstName'} ;
*]
</td>
<td>[* print OUT $row->{'Phone'} ; *]</td>
<td>[* print OUT $row->{'Email'} ; *]</td>
</tr>
[* } *]
Output:
<tr>
<td>ABC Corp</td>
<td>Smith, John</td>
<td>Phone</td>
<td>Email</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>XYZ Corp</td>
<td>Doe, John</td>
<td>Phone</td>
<td>Email</td>
</tr>
However, in 2.0b3 I get the output repeated like this (same number of lines though
<tr>
<td>ABC CorpXYZ Corp</td>
<td>Smith, JohnDoe, John</td>
<td>PhonePhone</td>
<td>EmailEmail</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>ABC CorpXYZ Corp</td>
<td>Smith, JohnDoe, John</td>
<td>PhonePhone</td>
<td>EmailEmail</td>
</tr>
In both cases, EMBPERL_OPTIONS are set to 262160.
I switched to 2.0b3 for testing because in 1.3.3 a combination of auto fill of the input/select boxes + [* *] doesn't work right (I see the [* *] in the value="" boxes, among other things but I know [* *] is experimental in 1.3 tree)
