Using Perl means being able to use a very +elaborate programming language, which is widely used for +WWW purposes. You can also use hundreds of Perl modules +which have already been written - including DBI - for +database access to a growing number of database systems. + + While this could also be done with other packages, Embperl +has several features especially for HTML: dynamic tables, +formfield-processing, escaping/unescaping and more. + + Embperl is a server-side tool, which means it's +browser-indpendent. It can run in various ways: Under +mod_perl, as a cgi script, or offline. + + There is also a module for Database access within Embperl, +look at DBIx::Recordset. |
