CGI::* Modules for Perl5
These are Perl 5 modules for the support of CGI scripting in perl.
They were originally written by Tim Bunce,
and are now maintained by Lincoln Stein.
When used in combination with HTML.pm and
URI::Escape.pm
they contain all the functionality of the original CGI.pm
modules.
In addition to the modules found here, you'll need the URI::Escape module found
in the libwww-perl package that can be found at any of these fine CPAN sites:
- Base.pm
- The "base" CGI module, which contains methods for accessing
environment variables and other common functions such as
log handling.
- BasePlus.pm
- Additional functions that give CGI::Base the ability
to handle the multipart forms created by the "file upload"
feature of Netscape 2.0.
- Request.pm
- The module that handles parsing the CGI request and returning the
query string.
- Form.pm
- Creation of state-maintaining HTML forms
- Carp.pm
- Produce nicely-formatted error log messages.
- MiniSvr.pm
- A miniature HTTP server that can be used to maintain state
between multiple invocations of the same script.
