Perl CGI Programming, Installation, Debugging
Obviously if you are going to run Perl scripts on your computer you will need to install Perl. You can obtain a Windows version of Perl free of charge from ActiveState.
CGI::Application: A Simple, Extensible Web Framework
CGI::Application aims to provide a framework for re-usable code that is based on the run mode concept, but in a way that avoids a lot of spaghetti code. Because it's Object Oriented (OO), it can easily be extended and enhanced, and later we'll be looking at some plugins that will make your job a whole lot easier. But if you're not an OO expert, have no fear: you aren't required to make heavy use of OO techniques if you don't want to.
CGI Security
CGI is the first and remains one of the most widely-used means of extending Web servers by interfacing external applications, offering various advantages.
However, the power of CGI comes with a price. CGI interfaces can completely compromise a Web server's security, and thus of the host on which it is running. All benefits of a CGI script are neutralized if it is insecure. It is impossible to anticipate (and defend) against all security holes. But by following a few guidelines, you can avoid known security holes and unsafe practices.
