NAME

       HTML::Template::Compiled::Classic - Provide the classic functionality like HTML::Template

SYNOPSIS

           use HTML::Template::Compiled::Classic compatible => 1;
           my $htcc = HTML::Template::Compiled::Classic->new(
               # usual parameters for HTML::Template::Compiled
           );

DESCRIPTION

       This class provides features which can not be used together with features from
       HTML::Template::Compiled. These are:

       dots in TMPL_VARs
           If you want to use

             <TMPL_VAR NAME="some.var.with.dots">

           you cannot use the dot-feature

             <TMPL_VAR NAME="some.hash.keys">

           at the same time.

       Subref variables
           In HTML::Template, the following works:

               my $ht = HTML::Template->new(
                   scalarref => \"<TMPL_VAR foo>",
               );
               $ht->param(foo => sub { return "bar" });
               print $ht->output; # prints 'bar'

           This doesn't work in HTML::Template::Compiled (in the past it did, but as of HTC
           version 0.70 it won't any more, sorry).

METHODS

       compiler_class
           returns HTML::Template::Compiled::Compiler::Classic

       validate_var
           gets the var name (parsed out of "NAME="foo.bar"" and returns if the string is a valid
           var name
