I'm writing some POD documentation for a module which will eventually be uploaded on CPAN. It will be my first module so I don't know much about this.

I don't want to do a half-assed job on it so I want to test how it will look. Because of this I've tried getting the stylesheets that CPAN has in order to replicate how it will look after uploaded (also, if it the upload would be instantaneous, I could try stuff that way, but since it takes about 1 day for it to be processed I'd prefer to test locally first).

I tried to put the following POD so that I can have the same stylesheets but it broke my existing POD.. and it didn't work.

=begin html <link rel="stylesheet" href="http://st.pimg.net/tucs/style.css" typ +e="text/css" /> <link rel="stylesheet" href="http://st.pimg.net/tucs/print.css" typ +e="text/css" media="print" /> =end html

I am looking forward to your thoughts on how I can do this .

Thanks for taking the time to read this.

Best regards,

Stefan
