Thank you for the help.  I'll take a look at a few different things and
give it a try.

Hey, all:

I've been using template toolkit http://template-toolkit.org/. It can be

used to generate static or cgi-based pages... with varable substitution,

passed arrays, arrays of hashes, etc., etc.

I think it's a good way to go. The tags like [% variable %] are embedded

in the html and parsed. You can include other html snippets with 
variables, pre-define variables, etc.

Consider [% FOREACH link = webpages %] where 'webpages' is an array of 
hashes like

[ webpages = [ {link=> 'http://foo.com', name=> 'www.foo.com'}, 
{link=> 'http://bar.com', text=> 'www.foo.com'} ]
]


  [% FOREACH link = webpages %]
<p> <SPAN class="[% link.sc_title %]">[% link.title %]</SPAN></A></p>

[% END %]

where you can delcare the array in the same or another (main) document.

Pretty powerful stuff, I'd say. Very flexible.

Good luck!
