Here you go Re: Testing password variable and more

RFC: Proposed tutorial - simple login script using CGI::Application

For easier ways see cgi-app / mojo / dancer / catalyst / https://metacpan.org/module/Dancer::Tutorial / RFC: Proposed tutorial - simple login script using CGI::Application,CGI::Application - LoginLogoutExampleApp / CGI::Application::Plugin::Authentication::Display::Classic - login box that works out of the box

I would start with something like https://metacpan.org/pod/Mojolicious::Guides::Growing#Final-prototype and add in https://github.com/inorganik/digest-auth-request for secure login :)

Re: Serve a file from a CGI script

If you're new its probably still all too confusing (there is a lot to know), I might write up a really simple but "secure" mojo version later

    Well color me Disappointed! I ask if anyone could tell me where to find a simple script and I get criticism of my title, directions to tutorials, other stuff I have no idea what is, and NOT ONE person has been helpful. I believe I was perfectly clear that I am not proficient, therefore none of your "help" is help. Methinks you "monks" have forgotten what it was once like to be as I am.

      Actually, many of us do remember .. and we also remember how much that sucked. Many of us have been in the practice of helping others with their computer issues for as long as we have been learning ourselves. We have learned, through long experience, that giving answers away can be worse than not answering at all. That has to be especially true in anything related to security! And, to be honest, when somebody wants free help setting up a system that very well may be a profit situation for themselves .. well anyway.

      Not one helped? Nonsense! We're here to help you help yourself. That might be more work than you are willing to take on, and that's fine. I suggest you hire a consultant.

      Nope. We haven't forgotten. We were just more willing to learn than you appear to be. Good luck with that attitude.

      The node you replied to contains a link to working code plus a patch to do what you want. Plus, it says "I might write up a really simple but "secure" mojo version later".

      "not one person has been helpful" appears to be the exact opposite of the appropriate response.

      and NOT ONE person has been helpful

      Why not?
