Re: About framework for web development in perl

For web apps I tend to use CGI::Application, with the HTML stored in template files (See HTML::Template), and for JavaScript fanciness (AJAX) I use the jQuery framework.

Check out the CGI::Application homepage.

Also, if you go down the jQuery route, you may be interested in jQuery UI:

"jQuery UI provides abstractions for low-level interaction and animation, advanced effects and high-level, themeable widgets, built on top of the jQuery JavaScript Library, that you can use to build highly interactive web applications."

Update: Added link to the jQuery homepage.

Update 2: Added section about jQuery UI

I use pretty much the same things, except I use Template::Toolkit (the official website: http://template-toolkit.org/) for my templating needs. I've also found the following modules helpful: CGI::Application::Plugin::TT -- adds Template Toolkit to CGI::Application CGI::Application::Plugin::AutoRunmode -- lets me specify RunModes as sub attributes instead of an annoyingly long list somewhere CGI::Session -- the handiest session module I've found so far	[reply]
