I thinking trying to embed PHP and and Perl (via Mason, embPerl, et al)
would be a bad idea, because a handler would need to parse the file for
each language (yes, PHP is a language), so each file would get parsed
twice. This would be horribly inefficient. I have done sites that had
separate pages as PHP and Perl CGI, but not on the same page.
At any rate, PHP and CGI stuff is really off-topic for this list.
