I have a Perl/Tk application which runs on a PC. The GUI (which has several tabbed frames)is used to enter product data which is used
to produce drawings. One user has asked if this can be developed so that the GUI can be
used over the Internet. I know that the answer is probably yes but I have had no experience of this type
of application. Therefore I am unsure where to start though I suspect that Perl CGI may play some part.
Can any monk give me some pointers as where to begin?
It would also be good to know what module I may have to use instead of Tk to create the GUI.
Equally it would be useful to know if there any 'guides' which explain how such as conversion can be done.
