Hi, I know the problem with Configuration, I discovered ist recently, but I didn't have time to fix it yet.
All these are problems of the way the website is generated from the POD files. It uses the EMbperl POD syntax and this has some trouble with "<pre>" content. It's on my TODO list. I am always happy for any problem reports. That's the only way to make things better and you are right these formatting issues doesn't shed a good light on Embperl. Hopefully I can fix them soon. Gerald P.S. You have asked how you can help. If you are not familar with Embperl's syntax definition I guess it would be too complicated for you to fix it, but it would be very helpfull, if you report me any problems you find on the site.
