Simple Perl DataBases
(http://www.inlink.com/~perlguy/simple/)- This is a tutorial intended to teach you some of the powerful features
of Perl while also showing you a very practical example of a set of CGI
programs that you can add to your web site. EveryChat (http://www.everychat.ml.org/)is the premiere
freeware perl CGI chat script specifically designed to work on every browser
available, from Lynx to Netscape! It requires absolutely no special software
on the client side and doesn't require plug-ins such as Java, Javascript,
or ActiveX. The the only software required on the server side is perl,
and most servers already have it installed. Furthermore, its simple lightweight
design minimizes script usage to make it easy on your server and easy to
use. The goal of EveryChat is to remove unnecessary features such as private
messages and large login screens to create a fast, professional chat environment.

on CGI. They include tutorials, discussions and working scripts. The emphasis
here is on explanation, so most of the scripts are discussed in some detail.
Most are usable in production. The numerous scripts which are offered here
may actually be quite useful since they provide decent functionality, working
demos are present on the server, and these scripts are actually helpful
when it comes to web page designing.CGI

people, yet there are some useful scripts that can also be used by homepage
creators even though these scripts are quite limited. Dave Bewley's CGI
Script Archive does, however, offer a multitude of links to different tutorials,
help guides, and other perl-related things which acts as a plus when it
comes to decent perl archives. Dave's
Collection of CGI Scripts (http://www.cyberwhiz.com/cgi.shtml)Dialogue

N Share (http://www.tisl.ukans.edu/~skang/freenshare.html)Gen
Tree (http://www.sdm.de/e/www/hilfe/gen_tree-2.1.tar.gz) - This Perl script scans the tree (better: the directed graph)
of HTML pages of a web site (it's not always a tree because circles and
loops are possible!), starting at the home page of that site and following
all hyperlinks in a recursive descent (you can also scan just a sub-tree
of your web site if you want). Circles and loops are recognized through
unique identification of each page by the device and i-node numbers of
its corresponding file. When scanning of the web site is complete, an HTML
page is generated which contains all the pages found in form of one hyperlink
to each of them. The tree structure of the web site is reflected in this
page by the indentation of these hyper-links. The text which is displayed
in these hyperlinks is extracted from the <TITLE> ... </TITLE>
tags inside the corresponding page. The script is capable of executing
server side includes and of analyzing server side image maps. This way,
no important hyperlinks are missed (many home pages consist of an image
map and nothing else!). It is also able to analyze CGI scripts simply by
calling them and analyzing their output (therefore, no HTTP server is needed!).
