Re^2: CGI modules?

CGI::Simple is a drop-in replacement for the CGI parsing part of CGI.pm, avoids dealing in HTML generation, passes all of CGI.pm’s applicable tests, plus an additional large batch of its own, has a much smaller and much cleaner codebase, and is quite a bit faster. I say, why not?

CGI::Simple seems to be exactly what I'm looking for, thanks. And one more question, what are the differences between CGI::Lite and CGI::Simple? x_x	[reply]

To me, the major difference is the interface: CGI::Simple works exactly like CGI.pm – and therefore, exactly like any number of other modules such as Apache::Request which also mimic CGI.pm. CGI::Lite uses a very different API. That alone means I’d be reluctant to use it. Makeshifts last the longest.	[reply]
