1.0 out of 5 stars Many examples not included in either the book or on the CD, 1 Jul 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Teach Yourself CGI Scripting in a Week (Sams Teach Yourself) (Paperback)
I found some useful information in this book but way too many examples are missing. For example, in Chapter 7 you build a form which posts to a non-existent CGI program. There is no indication anywhere to explain what this missing CGI does.

There are no updated files on the publisher's website so you're just stuck.

Don't waste your money on this book.

3.0 out of 5 stars Suitable for experienced programmers who are new to CGI/Perl, 5 Dec 1999
By A Customer
This book is a good introduction to CGI programming using Perl 5 for those with at least a basic grasp of programming and the web. The examples are useful although most of them are not on the CD which is disappointing. The main drawback is that the author refers to HTML+, Netscape being the pinnacle of the browser market and HTTP 1.0 - dated to say the least, but then so is CGI and Perl!!!

That said, the book has helped me program CGI functionality into web sites hosted on the UNIX platform with the minimum of fuss, when I am used to Windows NT throwing out Active Server Pages by the bucket load...

The clear layout and style of the SAMS Teach Yourself series is also appealing.

2.0 out of 5 stars Wrong Code Examples in the book, 26 Jun 1998
By A Customer
There are incorrect code examples in the book and their online "help" isn't. Unless you allready know some perl or have any other programming experience, this book not much help.
