in reply to Perl 5's greatest limitation is...?

I want a setting for Perl that makes it simulate PHP somewhat, including both easy embedding in pages and invisible preprocessing of submitted variables. If Perl were as simple to use as PHP, I wouldn't use PHP at all, since Perl lets you write algorithms and manage data structures a heck of a lot more easily.

I guess I'm just naturally lazy.

    For embedding in pages you could take a look at Juerd's PLP: http://plp.juerd.nl

    You can use ePerl with mod_perl and it is just like using PHP.
