R – How to create CGI scripts with Perl

cgiperl

I am creating a website and done with some HTML stuff, but I am thinking to create site using CGI and Perl scripting. I don't have much idea on CGI scripting. Can anyone please suggest me how to create a CGI script and how to create web pages with that?

Have a look at A Beginner's Introduction to Perl Web Programming on perl.com.

I would recommend you make use of tools like Template Toolkit or Markapl to make the process of producing and maintaining your HTML view much simpler.

And moving forward you might want to consider looking at using a web framework ranging from something very light like Squatting to a powerful beast like Catalyst.
