Why not write a quick CGI script to display a template?
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use CGI;
use CGI::Carp 'fatalsToBrowser';
my $template_dir = '/path/to/template_dir';
my $q=CGI->new();
if ( $q->param() ) {
show_template();
}
else {
show_form();
}
sub show_template {
my $template = $q->param('template');
open(TMPL,"$template_dir/$template") || die $!;
my $content = join '',(<TMPL>);
close(TMPL);
$content =~ s/<TMPL[^>]*>//gs;
print $q->header(),
$content;
exit(0);
}
sub show_form {
print $q->header,
$q->start_html,
$q->start_form,
'Template: ',
$q->textfield('template'),
$q->submit,
$q->end_form,
$q->end_html;
exit(0);
}
That way, you can set up a checkbox like this:
<input type="checkbox" name="foo" <TMP_VAR NAME=FOOCHECKED>>
where FOOCHECKED is either '' or 'checked'
Note - obviously I assume here you know how to taint check if this is on a live server (or to use an IP check to limit access etc) - this is just a rough outline.

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).
