I am using CGI.pm to generate my HTML for me. For example here is a snippet
of my code:

print   $q->header,
                                $q->start_html('Merlin Control Center'),
                                $q->img({-src=>'/merlin/images/head.gif'}),
                                $q->br,
                                $q->start_multipart_form,
                                $q->filefield('file'),
                                $q->br,
                                $q->submit('Upload'),
                                $q->end_form,
                                $q->end_html;

As you can see that prints a pretty simple page. What I am after is how can
I use CGI.pm to only print the filefield and use normal HTML to create the
framework around it, without making the code a disaster area?

Thanks,
John
