First of all, I'm not an expert on PHP.  But, I believe you
cpan has modules like Mason that  could give you what you want 
w/o messing with PHP.  Actually, I'm not real
big on mixing presentation layers with code and you might consider using
mod_perl or FastCGI instead.  That being said, why do you want to mix PHP
and Perl?  Is it in order to use Perl DBI?  If so, PHP, I believe, has a
similar db interface available (???I think)???.  I don't think you really
want
to mix PHP and Perl unless you have a really really good reason to do
so.  PHP alone probably has the capabilities you are already looking
for.  If not and you have the flexibility to pick which tools you are
going to use, write the whole thing in Perl.  If you know Java well, maybe
write a Java servlet.

I would try posting a question like this to a more general Perl mail list
(look at www.perl.org for a list) since this is a mailing list for DBI
issues.  You will probably find more help there.

Good Luck,
