in reply to Properly transforming strings with nested markup tags

Use of *ANY* module not standard in 5.004 is out of the question due to the needs of the app's audience.
Well, nearly all pure-Perl modules work with 5.004, so you can just include them with your app as part of the install. See "No excuses about not using CGI.pm" for strategies on making it one file even.

    Well, we're already packaging our own CGI.pm, so... ;)

    Unfortunately, it's the 5.004 bit that's the limit, not the lack of modules. Parse::RecDecent, for instance, requires 5.005.
