Hi

I am not able to update the thread properly. Please see the attachment "test" for update.

I have created TPL file. I have created TPL file like the format below:

**********************************************

......

**********************************************

Please let me know the update below:

1. Is it mandatory to include TPL under .. <.iw_pt> tags

2. When should I use and when

3. Please let me know is the above format correct.

Hi
Please let me know the update below:

1. Is it mandatory to include TPL under .. <.iw_pt> tags

[indent]I guess not[/indent]

2. When should I use and when

[indent]If the tag is used at the beginning of the file or is omitted entirely, everything that is not a presentation template tag will automatically behave as if it were inside a CDATA section. (from formspublisher guide)[/indent]

3. Please let me know is the above format correct.

[indent]not sure if PT attached to the post would work. try deleting "...." you have now in the [html][/html] tags and try compiling it.

You don't need the second line either - at least not with "xml" style DCR processing. My PT's generally start with an XHTML DOCTYPE declaration.

1.

Please let me know what is the good practice, should be start the TPL file with tags or not.

2. I am embedding my perl components inside .. . Anyother use of

3. where .. shoulb be used and where tags be used

[/html]

iw_pt is not required, I use it out of habit.

CDATA is not required between iwperl UNLESS you have open iw_pt at the top and close iw_pt at the bottom.

Or if some aspect of your Perl code prevents the PT from compiling correctly (e.g.: file handles like <FILE> might cause issues)

Please let me know how to check in CC Pro if my TPL is compiling properly

good question .. answer would be if everything was compiled correctly you should be able to see your page (as coded in tpl) as you intended otherwise it would throw some alert or error.

Let me frame my question..

I have created TPL and want to test it (i.e syntax wise as well as compilation will work or not) before actually generating the page, how should I do that.

You don't - you test the PT by attempting to process a DCR (or some other XML file) with it. If the PT works - you get output, if the PT doesn't work - you get a generally useless diagnostic error message and start debugging your PT (usually by removing chunks of it until it starts working and then slowly putting pieces back until it stops again - then carefully looking at the code you just put back to figure out why it is breaking things)

I tend to use iwpt_compile and insert print statements in the perl. If you have a runtime error then depending on which of the prints was the last to execute will help in the debug as well.
