NAME

Apache::Wyrd::Var - pass a variable object into a parent Wyrd

SYNOPSIS

    <BASENAME::Var name="my_name" param="my_param"></BASENAME::Var>

provides parent with variable "my_name" with value of the CGI param "my_param"

    <BASENAME::Var name="my_name"></BASENAME::Var>

    <BASENAME::Var name="my_name">some_value</BASENAME::Var>

DESCRIPTION

Inserts a variable into a Wyrd if that Wyrd implements a set_var method. How the Wyrd implements the method is it's own business (but for Apache::Wyrd::Form objects, it is to set the appropriate value under the variable's name in the _variables hash).

PERL METHODS
