I'm not sure if this is *really* relevant, but I tend to break the HTML out into seperate modules. Same goes with the DB calls. I'm porting an application to PostgreSQL, from MySQL. Really only have to edit one file. Same concept for HTML. I tend to not use the CGI.pm functions, and just write my own. Seems I can get it done quicker. Maybe because of the learning curve that really isn't there, but who knows - I'm too lazy. ;)

If anything, I can give the HTML.pm (or whatever it's called) to another HTML developer and say "edit the parts between -here- and -here-, here are the variables you can use... enjoy. Then I can just quickly proofread it and go from there..
