in reply to PostgreSQL web application examples?

Your question seems to have little to do with the PostgreSQL-ness of the application and more with the web-ness of it. Other than that, it seems to be a standard CRUD (create, read, update, delete) application.

While I have not had much success with CGI::Application (and I attribute it to my own obtuseness -- dragonchild very kindly and patiently explained to me the basics of CGI::App, and while his explanation seemed to make sense, I got bogged down by myself), it seems to be a good framework for organizing code.

Since you are going to be dealing with user-specific issues, you would probably need CGI::Session of sump'n like that to manage sessions.

CGI::App (or any other such framework) will allow you to create separate CRUD-specific modules and organize them in separate directory hierarchies.

Size of the app is irrelevant here in my view -- bugzilla may or may not be a good starting point as it might be too complex, but then, it might also be a good study.

    I have to agree that CGI::Application will give you a good start in learning how to organize your code for a web application. To further the push, there are several new plugins available to let you use other existing, best practices for things like session handling, logging, configuration, templating, etc.

    The mailing list is also very supportive when ever anyone has any application structure questions.
