[Templates] Flattening a hash

[Bill Moseley]

How come when I search google for a problem I'm having the first hit
is where I asked the same question in the past?  It's like my memory
has gone up in smoke.

  http://template-toolkit.org/pipermail/templates/2001-December/002266.html

I'm generating an option list.  The "options" method returns an
array ref of hashes.

But TT flattens it when there's only one element in the array.

So:

$VAR1 = [
          {
            'value' => '1',
            'label' => 'Foo'
          }
        ];


        FOR i = field.options;
            "<option value='$i.value'>";
            i.label | html;
            "</option>\n";
        END;

Ends up like:

    <option value="Foo"></option>
    <option value="1"></option>

I thought the fix was .list, but nope.  Must be too late in the day.


Er, the sky is falling...

BTW -- I just did a cvs update:

Doesn't seem like a problem, but:
