	I'll check it out in the morning - when I'm not so tired I can't see straight.

	http://pastebin.com/X9391iyH There might be some things that could be done differently, but this pretty much shows where it breaks syntax highlighting and what can be fixed without actually breaking perl syntax.

That's one of the issues with working with a frame work that combines 3 languages - there are characters that mean different things in each language - one of them is #.

(q~ ~; is non-interpolated and qq~ ~; is interpolated. YaBB uses the tildes in stead of curly brackets because it uses curly brackets to mark the template replacement sections. But a diff would be good so we can get it all cleaned up. While I was making the diff, I also noticed that literal # is used outside comment declarations... instead of literal #, I presume we should use \x23, but that makes HTML entities look unreadable.

	Not so much a bug, but styling glitch... There is a lot of unmatched single and double quotes that make code full of ugly hacks... Instead of using \" or '"' or unbalanced " -- we should use \x22 \' or "'" or unbalanced ' -- we should use \x27 This should also make syntax checkers happy There was also some cases where quotes were unbalanced because variable inside the quotes was not evaluated beforehand and used ?: instead. I'm going to make a diff when I get the code cleaned up...
