in reply to CGI Typein box for pseudo-HTML - is there a module?

Off-topic somewhat, but I'm curious: why are you calling it "pseudo" HTML?

Nobody says perl looks like line-noise any more
kids today don't know what line-noise IS ...

    1. It lacks <HTML> and <BODY> tags.
    2. It doesn't honor many tags and attributes that are part of the HTML standard (e.g., filtering out <IMG>)
    3. Oftentimes, it infers markups without tags (e.g. putting in a <P> where the user enters successive CRs.)
    4. At many sites, the HTML tags are supplemented with some other markup language (e.g. Wikipedia).
