4.0 out of 5 stars A good overall look at whats needed of a 'webmaster', 20 Nov 2001
By A Customer
As usual with O'Reilly books, 'Perl for Web Site Management' is well written, nicely bound and easy to read. As you can possible tell from the table of contents, this book basicly brings together various elements from the camel book, as well as the Perl Cookbook, Learning Perl and various other O'Reilly perl titles.

However, don't let that put you off. The book is well structured, starting with the very basics of perl for newbies, and moving onto more complicated topics. It also covers using the shell via telnet, deciding upon a suitable webhost and analysing log files. Security issues are also visited, which is an important feature when dealing with Perl scripts on the web.

Overall, this is a good book for those involved with the web who don't know to much about Perl, but are eager to learn. You can certainly gain most of this information seperatly from other O'Reilly Perl books, but this manages to bring it all together nicely.

3.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing, 19 Feb 2002
To be honest, I bought this book not quite knowing what to expect but, since I do a fair amount of Perl programming and look after a number of different websites it seemed like a logical enough choice.

If you are well versed in the various black arts of Perl programming, there's no need for you to buy this book - it assumes little prior knowledge and will teach you just about enough to do simple website maintainence duties (link checkin, CGI forms etc.etc.). The one saving grace is a small chapter near the end of the book on how to write Perl modules.

If you want to learn enough Perl to administer a website, this book is adequate. If you want to do the job properly, get the Camel Book, the Perl Cookbook and `CGI Programming in Perl'.

O'Reilly have only released two really bad books to date - the ill-fated 'Linux Clusters' tome and the truly awful 'Palm Programming'. The jury is still out as to whether this will make it into third place.
