Re: How to implement a Chat service in Perl CGI in a webpage

WebChat in under 100 lines of Perl, described in detail on merlyn's site at: http://www.stonehenge.com/merlyn/WebTechniques/col56.html.

On Github there is Writing websocket chat using Mojolicious::Lite. Those two options are about a decade apart. Excluding dependencies (available from CPAN), they're within a few lines of each other in length. :)

Or use Google for "web chat with Perl"

If you need a more customized response it would help us in our effort to help you if you could provide some background information such as where you are in the learning curve with respect to Perl, what CGI work you have done previously or are comfortable with, and what part of the service you have already succeeded in either implementing or conceptualizing from a coding standpoint.

I looked at the code @ randal but it too heavy to understand for me Then might I suggest having a read through some of our very fine Tutorials, beginning with Getting-Started-with-Perl, perhaps? (That will get you further than spamming will, at any rate...) And, of course, there's always teh googles. HTH, planetscape	[reply]
