Well, neither of the solutions I gave need be that complex.

To do the first, your existing script would only need to be modified to print to a file instead of the screen/browser.

The second solution, again using your existing script, wouldn't require the script to be edited more than once. It would just read from the include files and print them - they wouldn't need to be physically inside the code. The technically challenged would just edit the included file, and leave the Perl alone.

I risk being hung, drawn and quartered for even suggesting this, but is using PHP an option? (That has SSI type functions built in).
