Derek,
Have you tried:
print "...",
"...",
"...";
When writing html I try to make it as easy as I can to read ... later.
Also I like the use the cgi modules to print "standard" html entries...
again, for readability ...
or a "here" document (ref. Chapter 2, Terms in the Camel book ) ... If you
don't use the cgi modules then the "here" document is much easier to read -
debug, for me - as I write it as I would "normal" markup language ...

Derek,
I think your best solution is to use print qq(.....); instead of print
".....";
print (Content-type:
text/html\n\n<HTML><HEAD><TITLE>Endless!</TITLE></HEAD><BODY BGCOLOR =
"#000000"><FONT COLOR = "red"><H5>$current</H5><HR COLOR = "red"><A HREF =
"endless?$prev">Previous Page</a> | <A HREF = "endless?$next">Next
Page</A></FONT></BODY></HTML>);
