Disagreements are the spice of an active system. :) It's the 2nd ed in my shelf. It just hasn't been opened since 2001 unlike all my other perl books (well, except the DBI book but that's for another thread). The 2nd ed is still out of date. It's the HTML standards of 1998. CGI is the lion's share of what I've done with perl and I really believe picking up web technologies and plain perl is more helpful than a CGI Survey 101 (it's one of the slimmer O'Reilly volumes for one of the deepest topics).
