Perlito (linked in my previous message) is a Perl interpreter written in Javascript. Thus allowing you to run a subset of Perl within the browser.

And the HTML standards certainly do allow Perl to be implemented by browsers. <script> has a type attribute which is used to indicate the scripting language. Browsers are free to support whatever scripting languages they like. There is indeed a plugin written by ActiveState providing Perl support for Internet Explorer.
