in reply to How do you embed a Perl script into an HTML document?

As w/ the 'down off an elephant' joke' you don't, generally. You write perl cgi to produce the web page. But there's more. Mason et alia are ways to do that (there's a perlscript/IIS implant) one of which is covered in the July (alas *not* online) 2000 issue of SysAdmin, which uses perl (and sh/ksh) 'here' documents, apache and the htttpd.conf file to do on-the-fly perl processing. Pretty nice.

For more on Mason and other options, see perlmonth - a great resource, though it seems to have been' halted at issue 11. ;-<
