I am completely (and I mean completely) new to Perl, and haven't even really started programming with it.
I originally posted this topic in the XML forum because I basically want to import XML data from an external file and then display it on my homepage as kind of a news feed related to my website. I want it external so that it is easy to edit when the need arises. I was just wondering if there was a way to do this with perl (since I can't use mysql as my server won't allow it) because I tried using data islands, but they didn't work.
