  • I think Perl 6 should support html embedding that php has to enable Perl to be embedded in html or xml. The only advantage PHP has over Perl is that it can be embedded within html. PHP is not a general purpose language. In addition multilanguage scripting can also be implemented by language code tag attributes. The project http://sexx.sourceforge.net/ also mirrored on cpan as a Perl script demonstrates this.

    • If I remeber correctly, you can embed code in Strings with {...}. (the Perl5-hack of this would be @{[...]} )

      So you could just write:

        <html>
        <head>
        <title>Perl6 Test</title>
        </head>
        <body>
        { say '<p>Hello World</p>' }
        </body>
        </html>
        ";

      or something like that. (Actually, it may work better without 'say' inside the string.)
