Right ... and a third one. There is a bit of debate whether
heredocs (see quotelike operators: <<EOF)] are evil
for this purpose, but it might be an option here for short scripts.
However, if the project grows bigger, separation of content and format
will become necessary ... (e.g. by using templates).
open(OUT, ">",$outputFile) or die "couldn't open outputfile: $!";
print OUT <<'END_HEADER'; # '...' no interpolation
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Detailed Table of Contents</TITLE>
</HEAD>
END_HEADER
print OUT <<"END_BODY"; # "..." with interpolation
<BODY>
<H1>File: $outputFile</H1>
</BODY>
</HTML>
END_BODY

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).
