I second the Locale::Maketext suggestion. I can also add that you really should:
- Separate your strings and your source files. Keep the strings in a separate file.
- Use Unicode everywhere. Save your source files, your template files and your strings files as Unicode. Make it UTF-8, unless you have a very good reason to use any other representation. see perlunicode.
- Even though it's a good idea to save your source files as UTF-8, it's even more important to keep your strings separately - and in UTF-8. I'm repeating myself, but it WILL save you a lot of trouble.
(Edit: spelling.)

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.
