Did you look at Apache::Template and Template-Toolkit? The work in that area has really become a PHP killer for me. If you did, and still have the opinion you have, I'd be curious. I agree with your general observation: Raw Perl for people who could or want to code in PHP is probably the wrong solution. But the combination of Perl for the heavy lifting, and the TT2-minilanguage for the "designers" and casual use, is a very hard-to-beat combo, in my observation. -- Randal L.
