Here is a 5 meg tarball that includes all the source for this website implemented in CGI::Prototype

I dont make use of Class::Prototyped when using CGI::Prototype. I prefer to use normal Perl classes which works out under Class::Prototyped if you simply do a use base CGI::Prototype.

You do not have to use Template Toolkit with CGI::Prototype. merlyn might be scaring off potential users with his misleading presentation. I use HTML::Seamstress to do my HTML templating and it works like a charm under CGI::Prototype.

CGI::Prototype has a huge number of hurdles to cross. Merlyn can be very nasty to you at times. He will not create a mailing list. The docs are incomplete. But I will say one thing and I mean every word of it: the module ROCKS and I don't plan to use anything else for my CGI /mod_perl development. If I'm willing to put up with all the listed bs and still make exclusive use of it, that's saying something about how unique and good it is.
