Plan carefully. There are very-lightweight HTTP servers such as HTTP::Server::Simple which you can execute right within your own login session, and connect-to by opening a specified port-number at localhost, which is always your own machine. This will create an environment that is functionally identical to the one that Apache will create for you, and it is considerably easier for testing. (For intra-net purposes, I have been known to use those packages in production, and they work just fine.)
I happen also to be fond of Plack, and use the plackup command at the command-line to run a local-server instance in the same way.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
