You can fix those by replacing the bottom part of your template with: 
[% START  header  %]
  ==== Written By [% author %]  on [% date %] ====
[%END header%]
[%START row%]
        [%first%] - [%second%]
[%END row%]

[% START footer%] 
  *-*- This page was last modified on [% modified %]. Hope it still wo
+rks ! *-*
[%END footer %]

Notice the use of "START" and "END" on %header and %footer - this is because these entities are not simple scalars - they are hash refs that need to be expanded, and have their keys referenced.

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
