NB: + they are returned in random order. - variables( ) - Returns an array of variable names found in the template. + expansions + This method returns an list of expansions found in the template. + Currently, these are just coderefs. In the future, they will be more + interesting. - process( %vars ) - Given a list of key-value pairs, it will URI escape the values and - substitute them in to the template.
