CGI Programming on the World Wide Web (Nutshell Handbook)
{Go to purchase page}

by Shishir Gundavaram, Paperback, 450 pages Published by O'Reilly & Associates Publication date: April 1, 1996

An excellent book for expert programmers, CGI Programming on the World Wide Web doesn't waste time with miscellaneous or frivolous topics, but instead focuses on the workings of the CGI specification down to the tiniest detail. Author Shishir Gundavaram begins by explaining what CGI does--material that's probably familiar to most people reading this book. Fortunately, he promptly moves on to a complete explanation of each of the CGI methods and environment variables. The author also pays attention to every language you could conceivably want to use with CGI, especially ever-popular Perl. But CGI is simple, and there isn't enough to it to merit an alphabetical reference of more than a chapter in length. So, CGI Programming on the World Wide Web takes on the task of explaining CGI applications--some unusual ones as well as the usual suspects. In addition to teaching guest book and quiz applications (you may be better off with a book that puts its code on a CD-ROM), Gundavaram explains how to port e-mail and Usenet news to the Web with CGI and details a pretty cool Concentration game. Just for kicks, he makes the game look good in a text-only browser--a real technical feat that's kind of fun to read about. If you prefer a more technical reference and discussion book to a simpler tutorial, CGI Programming on the World Wide Web is the book for you.

Perl Resource Kit : Unix Edition
{Go to purchase page}

by David Futato, Nathan Patwardhan, Clay Irving, Larry Wall, Paperback, 2000 pages Published by O'Reilly & Associates Publication date: November 1, 1997

Perl Resource Kit is a first-rate collection of books and software from the Perl authorities at O'Reilly. This is the first "official" commercial distribution of Perl and includes a number of great references, as well as a startling new hybrid of Java and Perl. The kit includes the two-volume set, Perl Module Reference, which explains the existing Perl modules--encapsulated packages of reusable code that will save time and trouble for the programmer. An invaluable reference, these volumes will appeal to those who work consistently with the language. In addition, the kit includes Programming with Perl Modules, another useful learning guide. An excellent tutorial on the use and creation of Perl modules, this book also serves as a practical introduction to object-oriented programming with Perl 5. The guide is an excellent companion to O'Reilly's Advanced Perl Programming. The included CD-ROM contains a host of utilities and tools. It features a snapshot of the CPAN Perl module distribution as well as the installation program that allows administrators to install the most recent version of Perl modules from the Internet. The greatest appeal of Perl Resource Kit is undoubtedly the Java-Perl Interface, documented in the Perl Utilities Guide. The Java-Perl Interface offers all of the features of Java that were previously unavailable to Perl programmers--byte-code distribution, the Abstract Window Toolkit, Remote Method Invocation (RMI), and a more structured way to handle events. In addition, by using Perl modules and the Java-Perl Interface, Perl programmers will need to write more structured programming, which should begin to ease the tensions between Perl programmers and their critics.
