Question

Having trouble finding the correct syntax for creating a Definition List via Perl to create output as follows:

<dt>One</dt> 
        <dd><p>Testing 1</p></dd> 
<dt>Two</dt> 
        <dd><p>Testing 2</p></dd> 
<dt>Three</dt> 
        <dd><p>Testing 3</p></dd> 
</dl> 

I can’t seem to find any documentation on the usage. I tried $cgi->dl($cgi->dt([One,Testing1,Two,Testing2,Three,Testing3]))); and other variations but so far no luck. Searching Google or perldoc haven’t helped so far.

Answer 1

print $cgi->dl(
        $cgi->dt('One'),
        $cgi->dd(
                $cgi->p('Testing 1')
        ),
        $cgi->dt('Two'),
        $cgi->dd(
                $cgi->p('Testing 2')
        ),
        $cgi->dt('Three'),
        $cgi->dd(
                $cgi->p('Testing 3')
        ));

I’d really switch to Template-Toolkit instead of generating the data structure using CGI.pm though.
