in reply to Web app advice

I usually keep the html template in a file with strings like %%MENU%% or %%LOGIN%% in it. To display the file the code reads it line by line, searches for the known %%whatever%% sequences and substitutes them for the dynamic content.

    Fair enough, but it sounds like you have built your own templating system, is that so? If you have, I wonder why when there are so many tried and proven posibilities in CPAN.

      the OP already expressed concern that the perl modules may not be available, so it may be worth noting how easy it is to implement a simple templating system if simple and built-in are requirements.
