in reply to Perl and HTML

As others have already said, you can check with your website's hosting company and see if you can use Server Side Includes (SSI).

There are some other alternatives. You can create an index.cgi to read in your HTML file, swap out some targets for the dynamic information, then spit it out to the web browser. You can also get sophisticated and use a templating module like Template::Toolkit.

      SSI won't do the trick, because SSI doesn't give you the cookies information.
      Hi Joost,

      I've seen that statement several times now. Have you looked at $ENV{HTTP_COOKIE} in an included cgi?

      Are you talking about cookies and CGI.pm? If that isn't what you mean, would you explain in a little more detail?
