I am having a little trouble conceptualizing how to make pages my plug-in generates template based.

At the moment my editor monitor plug-in automatically generates editor's profile pages. But it does this with my look at the moment, all the html being written right into the plugin.pm file.

This may sound a little dumb, but how can I turn this into a template based file creation of these pages?

For example, throughout these profile pages, I need to insert various values, like emails, names, categories and so on. I am hoping this does not mean parsing a html file and replacing tags!!?? Sounds a little complex.

Maybe someone could point me in the right direction with this.

Thanks

print Links::SiteHTML::display('template_name', $tags);

So:

my $tags = { Foo => 'Bar' };

print Links::SiteHTML::display('template_name', $tags);

...means you would create a template and put it into the templates directory with <%Foo%> in it and "Bar" would appear.

You can use loop and function tags then as with any other template.

ooo, that looks good. Thanks for that Paul!!
