Re: Include Header and Footer to Print From Perl?

Having Perl print the contents of another file containing the header and footer information is not a possibility though?

I never said that. I did not bother answering that part since the answer
is so obvious. Perl was created to create reports - reading in multiple
files, analyzing them, and printing the results.

2. Can you include the html code in the perl script without having to include a "\" prior to every quote?
Yes. Look for "Quote-like Operators" in `perldoc perlop`. qq{} and
here-doc in particular.

http://perldoc.perl.org/perlop.html

Question: Have you ever used the "here-doc" feature? It is very
useful, and I recommend you try it.
