comment on

my script works ok, but when running it outputs in plain text

wat i want is to output on same cgi page without calling external html file to be processed by template module

its like i dont want template to process html file from other source. i want it to process the html code which is below

#THIS IS THE TEST.PL 
use strict;
use warnings;

use Template;

my @names  = qw/ Foo Bar Moo /;

my $template = Template->new;


$template->process('test.pl', { list => \@names })
        or die $template->error;


print <<START_HTML;

<!DOCTYPE html">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1
+" />
<title>Untitled Document</title>
</head>

<body>

  </div>
  <span class='inforno'>
