I've never understood why anyone would want to use Perlscript in a web page.
It's seriously crippled compared with Javascript, and as you say is unsupported
in other browsers, meaning you're locking yourself into MS IE on Windows -
hardly cross-browser, or cross-platform!
I use Perl on the server-side, but always considered its use in a browser
somewhat ludicrous. Javascript has everything Perlscript has (including the
regex engine) and much more - including tight integration with the browser
document object model. Oh yes, and it's available in virtually all GUI
browsers...
Quite honestly I hope Perlscript is NOT included in Mozilla.
