Re^2: A Matter of Style in CGI

He does use strict; - it just comes after the comments..

(I was bitten by that in my first glance too as I tend to put the strict line up top below the shebang. I'd put it on the shebang line if that were possible..)

I also much prefer Template Toolkit 2 to HTML::Template - to each his own, so I thought I'd point out the alternative.

No, you cannot do that - The `-M` option cannot be used in shebang lines as it will generate an error. This option is intended for use only on the command line. For example: `rob@kathmandu:~$ cat test.perl #!/usr/bin/perl -Mstrict -Tw print "foo!\n"; rob@kathmandu:~$ ./test.perl Too late for "-Mstrict" option at ./test.perl line 1.` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]
