Some people do programming inside JSP pages too, right? And Sun even says it's a good way to get started with web programming. Anyway, what you're looking for then is a simple templating module, you should look at Perrin Harkins' tutorial: http://perl.apache.org/preview/modperl-docs/dst_html/docs/2.0/world/templates/choosing.html . -- Per Einar Ellefsen [EMAIL PROTECTED]
