>I've just been using CGI and the Pg module

Carl,

Just out of curiosity, why do you use the Pg module as opposed to DBI (which 
would pull in DBD::Pg with the appropriate call to DBI->connect)?  The reason 
I ask is that the interface of DBI is clean and standardized, and so the 
impression I've gotten is that it is generally what's used.  But there must be 
a reason for the existence of Pg...perhaps a frequent user wouldn't mind 
sharing his wisdom. :)

Cheers,

nathanael
