Some say that a HTML templating system is a Perl rite of passage.
Depending on what your needs are, you might want to try the simple
(and lite) HTML::Template, or even a more complex but complete
HTML::Mason:

  http://search.cpan.org/search?m=all&q=template&s=1&n=100

Although you might have invented a rounder wheel, you should maybe
consider CPAN in future. You could even say, CPAN is "Rule 34" for
Perl :)
