Can you do the same queries from the command line already? It's hard to give you more concrete advice without seeing your code and a description of where you encounter problems in a more specific way. For simply running SQL queries, there is Querylet::CGI, maybe that is already enough for you.	[reply]

Which part seems tough? What are you having problems with? My suggestion would be to use Mojolicious::Lite over CGI. The documentation is great, and covers the concepts involved in learning Perl, web technologies, and a quick way to get results. Without a specific problem to fix I can only offer advice on how to get started. See also DBI/DBD::Oracle, PerlMonks for the Absolute Beginner and How do I post a question effectively?.	[reply]
