Bulletin Board style messaging, File transfers, Quick Messaging, Guestbooks, and more are now available in a Slick, easy to navigate format, with a User Interface visitors not only love, but can be productive using. CGI A quick and dirty (but stable, popular, and reliable) module for creating and processing CGI scripts. Used by thousands of people. CGI Made Really Easy (or, Writing CGI scripts to process Web forms) This primer focuses on writing CGI scripts to process HTML forms on the Web. It skips some details, but can bring you up to speed fast (literally an hour or less), and covers 90% of real-world situations. CGI Programming 101 This course is intended for anyone who knows HTML, but doesn't know Perl or CGI programming (and maybe doesn't know any programming at all). The goal here is to introduce you to writing Perl CGI scripts, teach you the basics of scriptwriting, and walk you through several common CGI programming applications for the Web. cgi-mailer cgi-mailer is a simple system enabling users to have HTML form input formatted in a user-defined way and sent to an email address, without needing a new CGI program for each new HTML form or any user access to the cgi program. cgi-mailer does not need to reside on the same server as the HTML forms that use it, so you only need to install it once for your entire organisation. CGI.pm - Eine Perl 5 Bibliothek Using the CGI.pm Modul to make things easier (in German) CGI.pm - the Perl5 CGI Library This perl 5 library uses objects to create Web fill-out forms on the fly and to parse their contents. It provides a simple interface for parsing and interpreting query strings passed to CGI scripts. However, it also offers a rich set of functions for creating fill-out forms. Instead of remembering the syntax for HTML form elements, you just make a series of perl function calls. An important fringe benefit of this is that the value of the previous query is used to initialize the form, so that the state of the form is preserved from invocation to invocation.
CGI::Imagemap Lets you create %22clickable images%22 on your web pages. You can define actions for rectangular, polygonal, and circular portions of your image, as well as individual points. CGI::Lite The CGI_Lite module handles and decodes CGI form data, of both the GET and POST variety. Inside the CGI directory. CGI::Log CGI::Log is a perl extension for centralized logging of debug, error, status and success messages from scripts or other modules. Debugging messages include a call trace to give you the appropriate context around each message. Developed for use with CGI or mod_perl, but is not limited to those applications. Easy to use API allows for the same calling method to be used from other modules, libraries or scripts. CGI::modules Set of modules for creating CGI scripts. Requires the URI::Unescape class, which is part of the libwww bundle, so you'll need that too. CGI::MozSniff Have you ever been annoyed by the fact that certain browsers, particularly those originating from the Pacific Northwest corner of the US, call themselves %22Mozilla%22, despite the fact that they are nothing of the kind? This module parses $ENV{HTTP_USER_AGENT}, and returns various results indicating what browser is *really* hitting your pages. CGI::Out A helper routine for CGI programs, CGI::Out buffers STDOUT until your script has completed. If an error occurs, a nice HTML error message will be generated instead of the drab %22Server Error%22, or worse, nothing at all. It'll also send you e-mail when your script barfs. CGI::Response A module for constructing responses to CGI requests. There's a %22Simple Interface%22 which handles most common HTTP headers, and a %22Full Interface%22 which handles everything else. Requires CGI::modules, which in turn requires the libwww bundle. Requires the HTTP module set, which is also part of the libwww bundle. CGI::Response also requires the SelfLoader module. CGIProxy HTTP/FTP Proxy in a CGI Script -- This CGI script acts as an HTTP or FTP proxy. Through it, you can retrieve any resource that is accessible from the server it runs on. This is useful when your own access is limited, but you can reach a server that in turn can reach others that you can't. It can easily be configured for anonymous browsing, so you can set up your own anonymous proxy like The Anonymizer. It's very simple to install. Classifieds Online classifieds. Lets users post and view ads. Categories are easily added using a category.dat file. Cookie Jar - Control which servers can get your cookies! Cookie Jar is a program that:

HTML::CalendarMonth HTML::CalendarMonth is a module that simplifies the rendering of a calendar month in HTML -- It is NOT a scheduling system. HTML::Embperl Embed perl code in HMTL documents -- Embperl allows you to embed perl code in your HTML documents. The code can be used to compute something (e.g. retrieve data from a database) or to produce output (e.g. display a variable). Also some metacommands are available which give you the ability to create %22loops%22 or to conditional process your HTML document. As fours feature some HTML tags are specially interpreted. This allows dynamic table/list/menu creation and an easier form processing. HTML::EP A ystem for embedding Perl into HTML -- In short, it's a single, but extensible program, that scans an HTML document for certain special HTML tags. These tags are replaced by appropriate output generated by the EP. What remains is passed to the browser. Its just like writing HTML for an enhanced browser! HTML::Pager This module handles the paging of data coming from an arbitrary source and being displayed using HTML::Template and CGI.pm. It provides an interface to pages of data similar to many well-known sites, like altavista.digital.com or www.google.com. HTML::SimpleParse A general-purpose HTML parser useful for filtering HTML. HTML::Stream HTML output stream class, and some markup utilities -- This module provides you with an object-oriented (and subclassable) way of outputting HTML. Basically, you open up an %22HTML stream%22 on an existing filehandle (or any blessed object that has a print() method), and then do all of your output to the HTML stream (you can intermix HTML-stream-output and ordinary-print-output, if you like). HTML::TableLayout A Perl package for creating web-based program interfaces. It provides an OO framework for HTML which is integrated into a %22Table%22 layout manager, not entirely unlike GridBagLayout for Java or the layout manager in tk/tcl. There are some simple examples on the bottom of this page, including source code. HTML::Template This module attempts to make using HTML templates simple and natural. It extends standard HTML with a few new tags - <TMPL_VAR> and <TMPL_LOOP>. The file written with HTML and these new tags is called a template. It is usually saved separate from your script - possibly even created by someone else! Using this module you fill in the values for the variables and loops declared in the template. This allows you to seperate design - the HTML - from the data, which you generate in the Perl script. htmlpp - The HTML Preprocessor A Perl-based HTML preprocessor. Generates pages, headers, footers, contents, cross-links, etc. HTMLTMPL parser This parser is an attempt to break the html page source away from the cgi code. This makes the cgi programmer responsible for obtaining the variable data, and a web page designer responsible for building the web page which will contain that data. htpass.pl Nem W Schlecht's replacement for NCSA's htpasswd with the following features:
htpasswd.pl A Perl program for changing htpasswd files using Standard Input rather than the tty. (As in CGI's) IDS A perl script that generates a multi-gallery photoalbum website on the fly. All you need to provide are the images and (optionally) text descriptions. Uses HTML templates so you can customize the look of the site. Creates thumbnails for JPEG, PNG, and GIF images. Recognizes and displays QuickTime and MPEG movies. Improved Server Push in Perl Here is generally the same program as animate.c in Perl source code form. The overall concept of this script was derived from the doit.c code and the animate.c enhancement. IndexMaker A simple script PERL to make an index.html file from PDF, HTML and other files. It should work with PERL 4 and 5. It uses the /Author field and the first /Title field in every matched PDF files, the <TITLE> </TITLE> field in every matched HTML files and the name of the file in the others.

MailMan MailMan is a simple script written in Perl5 which uses the CGI protocol to allow users to read and send email through standard POP3 and SMTP servers from any form-capable web browser. MailMan presents an interface which is roughly similar (although much simpler) to the interfaces provided by many of free Internet email services popping up all over lately. The difference is that MailMan allows individual sites to own and control their own private Web<->Mail gateway, without depending upon an outside service. MailMan is designed for users who are away from their desks, in conjunction with a 'primary' mail reading program. By default, it does not delete messages from the server. mancgi A centralized multi hosts unix MAN cgi utility. Mancgi gets manual pages from various hosts. The man pages are translated 'on the fly' using a modified version of man2html (version 2.1.0 of Earl Hood, ehood@convex.com) called man2html4cgi. As initial page the cgi presents an help page which can rediplayed pressing the ? button later. The user can ask for man pagea or for the man -k (apropos) informations. In any case all the references to other man pages are coverted into hyper link and the user can navigate on the man pages.

MiniWeb functions as a Web server for a single CGI script specified in INETD.conf. A user never has any of their input used to specify the file to open (and possibly open stuff they shouldn't). Msql::RDBMS A relational database management system for Msql, using HTML forms as an interface. Requires CGI-modules, CounterFile, and of course the Msql module. mywebget This small utility makes it possible to keep a list of URLs in a file and periodically retrieve those pages or files with simple command. This utility is best suited for small batch jobs to download eg. most recent versions of the software files. Net::SSLeay An interface to Netscape's SSL (Secure Socket Layer). By Eric A. Young, hence %22eay%22. nsapi_perl nsapi_perl is provides a mechanism to embed a Perl interpreter in a Netscape web server (in the tradition of mod_perl for the Apache server). This allows one to program to the Netscape Server API (NSAPI) in Perl rather than in C. NTperl cgi-bin danger Starting at about mid December 1995 Tom Christiansen (of Perl fame) posted a warning to one or more mailing lists devoted to the Perl programming language. The warning was about the dangers of placing your PERL.EXE file within your \CGI-BIN\ directory on a Windows-NT web-server. This is a very unsafe thing to do! OpenMerchant OpenMerchant is an e-commerce application based on Perl and vanilla SQL. Targeted at Linux, MySQL, and Apache, it will run on a wide range of OS, DBMS, and webserver options.

Its modular design allows it to be used as a complete or partial solution. Currently in pre-beta, the distribution includes source, documentation, and a sample store site. Perl and CGI Emmanuel PIERRE's little world in Perl:CGI. Perl CGI Programming FAQ There are times when you might want to have some dynamic information (information that's not constant) in your HTML documents. This could include simple information such as the date and time, or a counter that displays %22You are visitor number xxx%22, but it could also include such things as pie charts/graphs based on user input, results from searching a database, or animations. And the only way you can produce results like these is with CGI scripts (though you can also do so with client side applications like Java and JavaScript, but that's a totally different story!) Perl webmail Perl webmail is a CGI script that interfaces with a POP mail server that you provide.

All scripts were tested and will work on servers running any Unix/Linux flavor as well as Windows NT.. By default we ship Unix versions. Please, inform us if your server is running Windows NT. and we'll send you Windows NT. specific versions and instructions. Registration Script This is a simple way to have your visitors register to use a feature of your site. The user enters their personal information and a temporary password is sent via email. They then return to the registration area to confirm and pick a permanent password. Not Fort Knox, but useful to check identity before accepting a form, or to then print %22secret stuff%22 to the browser window. f you want serious password protection, you should probably use .htaccess, along with the Web Passwords script.
