Perl has it's oddities but really it's not that bad, unless you pass out while reading the fine manual page anyway.


The only thing I hate about Perl is I'm used to writing hash['key'] not hash{'key'} and my $var sounds self centred >_>

HTML is a mark up language for defining document structure not a scripting language... Scripting is done via external or embedded langauges (i.e JavaScript, Perl, PHP, etc). Although it's a bit polluted these days HTMLs really a nice language for what it was designed for IMHO.


You could say I'm someone who feels 'dirty' doing things in HTML, that really belong in a stylesheet whenever possible ^_^
