So where are these other pages of the article? The one I read has a title at the top, footnotes at the bottom, and no paging buttons or links.

I am not a JavaScript advocate. I was merely trying to find out what these other presentation technolgies are that the article alludes to. The bulk of the article laments the fact that CGI's are tied to HTTP and HTML. So is the rest of the web, so what's the point?

CGI is not Perl. CGI is a way of providing dynamic content. The fact that there are other wrappers around that doesn't change the fact that under it all the same limitations and issues exist, regardless of technology used or language. So in that sense, much of the web (other than static content) is basically a CGI model, usually with some sort of wrapper around it.

We (or I) obviously hit a nerve based on the tone of your response. I was merely trying to take the points I saw as inaccurate and point out what I see to be the truth. Why does that bother you so much?

I have, by the way, written dynamic web back-ends in C, C++, Java, and even with shell scripts so don't assume I live and die by Perl. I use the best tool for the job at hand. I can't help it if much of the time that's Perl. 8-)
