installing module documentation

Hi, In Perl 5.6.0 I was able to add module documentation (the html files) to c:\Perl\html\index.html by copying the files to the relevant directory in c:\Perl\html\. They would then appear in the modules list on the left of the page. But that doesn't work in 5.8. Is there another way to do this in

Dan, I can do it in one line. But I'm not convinced it's the "right" way to do it; i.e. it seems like it's cheating: sub rmgtlt { $_[0] =~ s/^\<|\>$|\n|\r|\s$//g ? return $_[0] : return $_[0]; } There's got to be a better way that doesn't use this if-then-else approach. I'd vote for keepi
