in thread Perl CGI -disabled

At work I maintain some legacy code which uses CGI and CGI::Application, for both of which I employ a templating system since I find it much easier to work with HTML that way. IMHO it's much easier (and takes less time) to keep HTML/CSS/JS separate from perl code.

    I don’t disagree at all. My job is similar. I am just shy of the pervasive, long term slamming and rooting for round-filing CGI.pm. It’s a valuable tool even though I agree it shouldn’t be on the front lines anymore. I think there would be much less home-rolled parameter handling code in the wild, for example, without the oft shown attitude that CGI.pm is somehow toxic.
