In the previous episode of
The Perl You Need to Know
we surveyed
the very basics of this powerful yet sometimes intimidating language.
Now that we can crawl, it's time to walk.
In this article, we'll complete
our look at Perl fundamentals and then jump right into using Perl to
interact directly with web pages using the CGI module. In doing so,
we'll roll a simple registration log, enact some form
validation, analyze
environment variables, and ride some redirects.
This article assumes a knowledge of Perl language fundamentals,
such as variables, conditionals, loops, and functions.
