"Welcome to the seventh edition of PerlMonth. In this issue Joshua takes Apache::ASP to the next level. Learn how to fine tune your configuration to make your Web Site run like a Porche instead of a Honda. Joshua shows how you can serve up 1,000,000 pages a day without a sweat. We are starting our new Jobs Listing section this month. All jobs listed here will be Perl related. No more going through thousands of unrelated entries to find only a few Perl related jobs. New jobs will be added everyday so check back often if you are on the market or just want to know what's out there for Perl programmers. We are starting our Book Review section this month also. Rachel Rawlings has reviewed "Elements of Programming with Perl" by the hot, new Publisher, Manning Publications. Each month we will review a different book. If you like to review a book let us know and we will set it up. Enjoy the articles."

This class is written by Jacqueline Hamilton. (me) If you have any questions or comments about the course, feel free to email me at kira@metronet.com. Since this is a part-time effort for me (and since I'm busy finishing up the book!), I can't guarantee replies... but I do love feedback. :)
Contents
I strongly suggest working through these in order, because each chapter builds on material you learned in the previous chapter.
- Introduction - What is CGI? Why learn it? What do you need to get started?
- Chapter 1: Getting Started - where to write your scripts; how to upload to the Unix host; changing permissions; writing your first CGI
- Chapter 2: Perl Variables - Scalars, arrays, and hashes
- Chapter 3: CGI Environment Variables - Using data from environment variables; writing forms using GET
- Chapter 4: Processing Forms Writing forms using POST: a form-to-mail CGI
- Chapter 5: Advanced Forms Handling radio buttons, checkboxes, and select fields; writing a survey/poll CGI
- Chapter 6: Reading and Writing Data Files - File permissions; how to open, read, write, and close files
- Conclusion - where to from here?
- Bonus Section - Searching Files
This lesson was part of the old CGI Programming 101 class. The material has been updated and modified for a later chapter in the book, and that chapter is not available here online.... but rather than delete this information entirely, I'm leaving the old lesson up for reference purposes.The entire class is also available as a printable PDF file (33 pages, 109K).
[Sept 18, 1999] Introduction to Perl & CGI Programming -- the course based on Medinets book.
This is a complete course in Perl 5 programming (more properly called scripting) with CGI applications. The required equipment and materials are:
- A Windows-compatable PC
- Windows 95 or 98 installed
- Microsoft Notepad or similar text editor
- Access to a Perl compiler that is running under one of the major operating systems such as Unix, Windows95/NT, or OS/2.
Note: Lesson 1 describes how you can find, obtain, install, or do whatever is necessary to access a Perl compiler.The course is presently built around the online version of David Medinets' book, Perl 5 By Example. Students who have no previous programming or scripting experience can expect to spend between 1 and 2 hours on each lesson, including the time for doing the hands-on examples and exercises. Typical completion time for the course is about 1 quarter, or 12 weeks.
How to Take This Course
Bookmark this page--it is the starting point for each lesson. Then click on the lesson (over there in the left-hand column) you want to study. That will take you to a study guide for that lesson. The instructions should be clear at that point.
Good luck. Or better yet, work hard, work smart, and you will make your own luck.

terminals. It contains button, radiobutton, label, line, listbox, text_entry,
pull-down-menu, filedialog, popup-box and more. Examples are included. This

[July 17, 1999]Newt is a perl library built on top of Red Hat's newt C library for text screen widgets.
Allows a perl programer to build simple but effective text-mode user interfaces with little effort. It is very usable because it has complete support for all widgets found in newt C library and provides a nice abstraction over the C interface. Full documentation is provided.
[July 17, 1999]WebRSH WebRSH is a CGI program which implements a general purpose web-based computing shell. It provides a command line interface, file manager, text editor, and a few other basic things, while being highly configurable and adaptable to various tasks. It can replace, to some extent, rsh, telnet, and ftp daemons. WebRSH is implemented in Perl, and runs on both UNIX and Win32 platforms.
