Hi everyone,

I am using Perltidy to create webpages with source and POD in one place. As you might be knowing Perltidy internally uses pod2html for creating the HTML page.

I have code which have several subroutines and I thought of using several POD paragraphs each ending with a =cut. I know that it is not recommended by perl best practices, but I wanted not to write my comments in two ways.

Anyways my problem is everything is running fine and I got the neat looking web pages, but I am getting an extraneous =cut in the web page for the every occurrence of =cut other than the first one.

So does the pod2html does not like more than one =cut statements? Or is this some kind of bug and can any work around be suggested or already exists?

If someone knew of this or have solved this problem, please share your thoughts and suggestions.
