Hi all,

And thanks to David for his response re using php & perl together.

What made me work with php was it's ability to draw reusable page elements like the 
header, menu, footer from another html page from a fixed html page.

Now I know that this can be done in perl when the pages are generated by a script, but 
my pages are fixed html to take advantage of meta tags etc plus completely different 
layouts required within the one function.  So I was attemtping to use the function in 
php to call headers, footers etc from another html page so that I don't have to alter 
150 odd pages each time I change one minor thing in the layout.

So, I am not sure that it would be a great idea to call a subroutined directly from a 
fixed html page even if it can be done....so how else would I call my headers. footers 
etc using perl.  Tis the question at the end of all of that  :-)

Thanks in advance.

Cat
