Simply have your scripts generate the body of the html documents (that's everything that you put between the <BODY> and </BODY>. We'll also take care of adding the navbar to the pages). In addition, the first line should look like (using the proper title):
#use wml::debian::template title="DOCUMENT_TITLE" When we do the daily updates of the web site, your pages will automatically be converted into proper html and look like the other pages on the site. Yes, it is possible to run perl (more properly eperl) from within the wml documents, but you probably don't need it for your pages. We suggested doing it this way to make your life easier, not harder. :) Please trust us. Jay Treacy
