What you're probably looking for is:
do 'mycode.pl';
As for inserting data into an HTML page, Perl prefers to keep its code separate from text. So instead of dropping code snippets here and there in the page, you'd do something more like this:
use strict;
use warnings;
my ($handle, %hash);
###### Collect template contents and change to string
open($handle, 'template.dat');
$_ = join '', <$handle>;
close($handle);
###### Some dummy values to insert in the template
$hash{'name'} = 'Theodore';
$hash{'age'} = 26;
###### Every instance of %hashkey% is replaced with
###### the corresponding value
{
no warnings;
s/%(\w+)%/$hash{$1}/g;
}
print;

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
