First up I'd ask why you can't let the user it his own webpages himself. I set up WebDAV for our users and it's been a winner all around. The users can mount their websites as folders on windoze machines and there is a command line interface for Unix style OSs. There's even a port for a Mac.

The full niceness of the interface can only be appreciated on windows machines because they can treat files as if they were local, and so use their favourite HTML tools.

If you can't do that, you could write a CGI script (using CGI.pm 'perldoc CGI' for more info) to edit a text file that is included into their HTML page using SSI (Server Side Includes).

If none of this is familiar to you, this would be a great project to extend your Perl skills, but it will take a few days to feel comfortable with all the stuff you will have to deal with.
