Passing data to TT2 after FB instantiation but before render

Hey All,

I am constructing FB objects more or less like this:

    my %vars = ( ... );
    my $form = CGI::FormBuilder->new(
        template => {
            type => 'TT2',
            template => $template,
            variable => 'form',
            data => \%vars,
        },
    );

Before calling render, I would like to pass some other variables to
the template.  How can I do this?  How can I access the data hash ref
that will be passed to the Template's constructor or the Template
object itself?

TIA!

Unless I'm mistaken, if you hold on to the original hash you handed in
(%vars in the example) then you can change its contents at any point
until rendering.  I don't think the TT plugin copies the contents of
that hashref.

You weren't mistaken, Rod.  Thanks.
