Comments please
Ok, I got a new script on my web site called Dirctor.
What this script does is manage your web site by using special comment tags around content
so if you had
this is the body
then all you would see when you log into director is "this is the body" in a text box that you would be able to update easily.
http://www.perlshell.com is the URL.

I like the idea...I would have used it a year ago. But I already have a template system!
But, there are A LOT of people who would find this useful. 
Good job.

Everyone here has a website. It's just that not all are worth posting (Mine!
).

It's something I made...very simple. Actually, not much of a template (I haven't needed anything more complex).
I use the following code to call the "template:"
$body = qq|This is the body|;&build_html("This is the title", "this is the location, for visual nave purposes", $body);
Then in a global file I use:
sub build_html {local ($title, $location, $body) = @_;
print qq|
<html>
<head>
<title>$title</title>
</head>
<body>
You are here: $location<br>
$body
</body>
</html>
|;
}
It's a little more complex than that, but not much. I then keep subroutines for the diferent templates I might need. I know I should go to something else, but this seems like it would be faster than opening a file, parsing it, etc.
