Hold up, hold up; what do you mean precisely by "embed Perl in HTML?" Once we work out what outcome you're looking for, we can better help you get there. (one possible interpretation is just to list code in HTML, as you've done on this very page!)

Well, I what I am saying is is there some way to put a Perl form in an HTML document instead of accessing it through the Command Prompt, and if there is - how do I do it?	[reply]

Aha. As others have suggested, the answer is CGI, mod_perl, or .. well, anything involving a web server, basically. HTML can't execute code (apart from perhaps client-side scripts, but AFAIK there's no client-side Perl interpreter (around)), but a web server can! Best of luck. Let us know if we can help you any further with this. Anne	[reply]
