Best CGI book Ive used yet.  |
|
Finally, a book on programming CGI with Perl that shows how a complex application is constructed step by step. Most other Perl/CGI books Ive seen, including the OReily books, are either pure reference with code taken out of context or they are simplistic examples that arent practical. This book also has a brief explanation of Perl that is very concise and understandable.

Best book about CGI so far, covers all topics. |
|
It covers graphic generation, file access, DB management, security transaction. E-mail access... Enough topics, good details. There is a shopping-cart example, gives good reference for writing complex cgi program.
|
This is not a book for first time Commerce setups....  |
|
This book is based solely on the program that comes on CD-Rom with the book. So before you will understand what the book is talking about you have to install the files on your server. The book makes most of the installation part a huge guessing game. When you finally get it installed, check if it works. If your lucky you wont have to call your Hosting Service to have any little extra services turned on just to get the program running. Now that you have it WORKING right and you move on to the rest of the book, your stuck with a very unattractive web site. Help on customizing this cgi is another guessing game. All in all I say this book was very vage and really doesnt get down to the nitty gritty on web commerce. Its almost as if they are trying to get you to use thier program for some reason, which by the way is out dated and youll have to download a newer version online.
