in thread Creating a Directory Site

Maybe I didn't make myself particularly clear, but I never said I was 'afraid' of using OO Perl, mod_perl and definately not unknown modules, because I do that all the time! I'm module crazy! :-) I simply thought that I should consider all options before just going ahead with what I know.

The only way to 'evolve' my perl skills is to experiment and dabble in technologies and try to understand them. However I also dont want to use technologies for the sake of it when a simple solution will do

ps. dont call me chicken! :-)

    Let's see, you wrote:
    I was thinking about Mason, the trouble is I havent really done any work with it before,

    which to me indicates you find it troublesome to work with a module you haven't used before. Furthermore, you write:

    doesnt it require mod_perl?

    this indicates to me usage of mod_perl is something don't fancy doing. Finally,

    Also the thought of OO Perl is a little worrying

    what does "worrying" mean in your language?

    dont call me chicken

    All I can see of you is what you write here. If you don't want to be called chicken, don't act like one!
