Somthing like this:
use strict;
use CGI;

{
        my $p = new CGI;

        print $p->header;
        print $p->start_html ("Title Page");
        print $p->p (center ($p->font ({-size=>'+7'}, "This is a test"
+)));
        print $p->end_html;
}

[download]
would give you this:
Content-Type: text/html

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML//EN">
<HTML>
  <HEAD>
    <TITLE>Title Page</TITLE>
  </HEAD>
  <BODY>
    <P><CENTER><FONT SIZE="+7">This is a test</FONT></CENTER></P>
  </BODY>
</HTML>

(I reformatted the HTML to make it more readable. CGI.pm usually runs stuff together)

It takes a little reading, but 'perldoc CGI' has some pretty good information. There's an excellent tutorial written by Lincoln Stein, that someone has a link to, but I don't know where it is. Anyone?

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post, it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":


  • Posts are HTML formatted. Put <p> </p> tags around your paragraphs. Put <code> </code> tags around your code and data!
  • Titles consisting of a single word are discouraged, and in most cases are disallowed outright.
  • Read Where should I post X? if you're not absolutely sure you're posting in the right place.
  • Please read these before you post! —
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags:
    a, abbr, b, big, blockquote, br, caption, center, col, colgroup, dd, del, details, div, dl, dt, em, font, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, hr, i, ins, li, ol, p, pre, readmore, small, span, spoiler, strike, strong, sub, summary, sup, table, tbody, td, tfoot, th, thead, tr, tt, u, ul, wbr
  • You may need to use entities for some characters, as follows. (Exception: Within code tags, you can put the characters literally.)
            For:     Use:
    & &amp;
    < &lt;
    > &gt;
    [ &#91;
    ] &#93;
