XHTML, is nice... but the <br /> (br with a space then the empty element delineating slash) thing seems like a
bit of a hack which is neither XML nor HTML... then again,
I have only fooled with XML and never really made a full
app with it. And who know which if any browsers would barf at such a syntax. Mad love to the everything engine, though.
On the topic of the poll, I must be honest and say I've
used CGI.pm to generate entire pages, just do forms, and
parse form variables from forms I wrote by hand. The other
day in irc, chromatic gave me the tip of HTML::Template
which really helps things out when trying to separate
formatting (HTML) from code. I highly recommend it. It
shortened my latest job by at least 100 lines.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
