Because I don't want to have to go find a!@#$*^$ Perl programmer every time the marketing department or a customer wants their website re-themed. And being a Perl programmer, thank <deity-of-choice> Perl programmers cost more than HTML coders. Because I don't want to have to figure out what *your* code was doing when you wrote it two years ago and are now long, long since gone. *THAT* is why everyone is so interested in Mason, Template, XSLT and all of the other templating technologies. It's a simple business decision. Mike808/ -- () Join the ASCII ribbon campaign against HTML email and Microsoft-specific /\ attachments. If I wanted to read HTML, I would have visited your website!
