Hi Guys it's been a while.

I'm currently building a WordPress online shop and I'm wanting to build an online quote system using perl because perl is the language I'm most familiar with.

I could make a subdomian and have the quote system separate, but I would like to integrate what I do with WordPress and carry over information from one of the WordPress pages over to another page built in perl on the same site. Is this possible and if so can someone point me in the right direction to some literature I can read in order to use perl within WordPress.

For example, I want to build a web shop in perl then the sizes the customer enters into the boxes on the site and the product they select needs to go over to a perl programme for a few calculations then return the results back to the WordPress page

Thank you in advance if you can help
