I use PHP when I have something simple I want to embed in a page and I don't want to mess with templates. I know a lot of Perl programmers think mixing code and HTML is evil, but the dark side of the force is seductive...

It's too bad there isn't a page extension that lets you embed Perl. I'd dump PHP in a flash.

Howzabout Embperl-2.0rc3? Maybe there's no reason not to dump PHP...	[reply]

gloryhack mentioned HTML::EmbPerl. That would look like: `<html> ... [- print for reverse 1..10; print "BLASTOFF!"; -] ... </html>` [download] There's also Apache::ASP. It would look so very different as to be: `<html> ... <% print for reverse 1..10; print "BLASTOFF!"; %> ... </html>` [download] Egadz! There's also several others (for example HTML::Mason, which (much like Apache::ASP) can be used in a fairly light-weight manner, as well as more template-heavy). For what it's worth, I've used both and prefer Apache::ASP. `------------ :Wq Not an editor command: Wq` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]
