Or if you *really* want to use formats, can you post a demo of your problem w/o other dependencies?

When I first started playing with Perl (~1995?), my mentor showed me a piece of his code that used formats to handle a complex text table that he had to work with.  In the mean time I haven't ever really used them (resorting to the printf as Jay mentioned).

I personally wouldn't mind seeing some sample format scripts just to get familiar with them.

(And I did get some basic AJAX stuff working with the CGI module - I've been pushed to other tasks, but I'll get a sample of that code to the list soon...)
