Rating:  Summary: Great Coverage Most Necessary Scripts Review: Great Book. Real World Scripts. Not an intro to Perl. Good coverage of some powerful scripts. Best for use on Unix. Some work needed for use on NT. CD good, but check Selena's web site for the latest updates.

Rating:  Summary: Great for intermediate & above users Review: I think this book is more informational than practical. Although I've been able to successfully customize some of the CGI scripts, I've had a bear of a time relating to the procedures and found no help what so ever in the error or troubleshooting department. All in all the scripts in this book are extremely powerfull, just make sure you make time for deciphering!

Rating:  Summary: Not for NT servers Review: If you're running traditional UNIX web servers, you may find value in this book as it addresses many of the more common needs for CGI programming; however, if you're running on an NT web server, beware. Although the authors make an attempt to address the NT issues, I've been 100% unsuccessful in making their programming run. Other uses for $40. include: dinner, Christmas presents, a good movie, 2 pizzas, 8 trips to McDonalds, 1/2-pair of shoes, 2 tanning sessions, a copy of Harper Lee's book and a cup of coffee . . .
Rating:  Summary: Not for NT servers Review: This is definitely the favorite in my library! I literally went through the entire book one evening after successfully installing several of the scripts and learned more about Perl than from any other resource or class...
