Bill will talk about building web applications using the
CGI::Application, HTML::Template, and CGI::Session modules from
CPAN. These tools simplify building web apps by largely
separating the web page design from program code. The
CGI::Application module allows the programmer to build
applications with a very simple CGI script that invokes an
application in a well defined modular structure. It is designed
to use the HTML::Template module which removes most of the HTML
considerations from the Perl programmer who only has to supply
and process template variables used in the template. CGI::Session
preserves state information for the session with minimal work.
