Nice post (but do we really need the CSS?). Question: why
is the XML file static? I myself have used static XML files before (if i need a new record, i add one by hand via vim),
but in 'real world', that data is stored in a relation
database. If you had used XML::Generator::DBI, then
i could see the point better, but having the "boss" handle
the XML file seems, wrong.
Also, i feel compelled to mention that unless you are
looking for platform independence, XML/XSLT just isn't as
fun as a pure Perl templating solution, such as
HTML::Template or Template, IMHO.
I really think this would have been a better article if you
had included them as well. But effort++. :)
Addendum: indeed, i really wish you had made this article
more general, as what you are describing is the
model view control "pattern".

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).
