Or is it not a good idea?
I couldn't find anything from a search, so excuse me please if this
has been covered before.
Creating HTML inside the code is the best way to make unreadable,
unmaintainable program with mysterious errors.

There's always Template::Declare[0] which lets you do
template simple => sub { html { head {} body { p {'Hello, world wide
web!'} } } };
And keep the html in a sensible place (i.e. not in your controllers).
Never used it but i know Jon Rockway has so perhaps he can comment on
how useful it actually is.
