This course is intended for non-programmers. The Perl scripting language is used to create server-side applications that generate HTML pages on-the-fly. A comprehensive explanation is given of CGI and related techniques for providing dynamic content creation on the Web. We start at the beginning, explaining the value of CGI and how it works, and the basics of script programming. The Perl language, syntax, functions, and library modules are covered.
