Ok, thank you, but now I'm having another problem with this:

open(TEXT,"text.txt") or die ("error:  text.txt failed\n");
        while (<TEXT>) {
                my $text = <TEXT>;
        }
close(TEXT) or die("error:  close text.txt failed\n");

print <<"EndOfHTML";

$text

EndOfHTML

It tells me $text requires explicit package name but I do give it 'my'
so why is it still giving me that error?  And once that error is fixed
will the document be put into $text and then print properly even after
I closed text.txt?

Thank you again.  I don't know what I would do without this list.  :)
