If your content isn't going to change much, why not setup a hash to map the values to the names?

%list_items = (
    'fish1.jpg' => 'Fresh water fish',
    'fish2.jpg' => 'Salt water fish',
    'fish3.jpg' => 'Mudskippers',

);

Of course, you'd probally prefer to store the value/name pairs in a file and read them in. I'm sorry that I can't answer the question in a CGI way. I've been using ASP with PerlScript for my web-app needs and I like it very much -- so much that I haven't learned CGI!
