in thread What is cgi-lib.pl and how do I use it?

Is this homework? It reads like homework. We don't really like helping people with homework.

CGI.pm will do all that you need. And probably easier than you would do it with cgi-lib.pl.

As for a book, Beginning Perl is available online and it includes an Introduction to CGI.

    Hi, No this not for homework. I recently moved up from doing support to becoming a software support analyst. Its a learn on the job type of thing and Perl is what I need to learn for most of what I do. I will look into the book you've recommended. Thanks a bunch. -John

      So who is telling you that you must use cgi-lib? Sounds like a dangerous sort of person to have as a colleague or (worse) a boss :)
