   How about HTML::Template
 Agreed. If you use HTML::Template, you can use include statements within your HTML documents. Something like this could go in your index.html (or where ever): 

<html>
 <body>

 <tmpl_include="templates/top.html">
 <tmpl_include="templates/left.html">
 <tmpl_include="templates/main.html">
 <tmpl_include="templates/bottom.html">
 
 </body>
</html>

In your Perl code, you would just say:

<code>
use HTML::Template();

# open the html template
my $template = HTML::Template->new(filename => 'index.html');

# Fill in various parameters here
...

# Send header here
...

# print the template
print $template->output;

The documentation for this module is very good, just read up on it for instructions on what all you can do with it.
