Subject: RE : Handlers vs Perl scripts
Could anyone explain me why having perl files like :

Mason. Have you tried the Mason list for help with your bugs?
Embedding html inside perl scripts is not the way to go - it'll
get very unwieldy very quickly.
If you put most of your functions into modules (eg for db
access), t
