Personally, I'd use either Mason or the Template toolkit. It's much better than CGI.

I agree, if the OP is willing to install Mason (not difficult) and has permission to modify the server configuration. I experimented a little with Mason almost a year ago. It was fun and easy to install on my local host but a lot of the free web hosts don't allow you to modify your Apache config (if I remember correctly.)
I didn't really get my feet wet with Mason so didn't feel qualified to answer whatever follow-up questions could arise from posting a Mason example.
