Web - A set of useful routines for many webworking purposes
SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
This module was primarily made for UNIX/Linux-Systems.
Parts of it cannot be used on other systems. E.g. the
procedures for file locking demand systems that can use
symlinks. If you use the modul on systems where symlinks
cannot be used, fatal errors may happen.
SYNOPSIS
use web;
ABSTRACT
This perl module serves users with several useful routines
for many purposes, like generating webpages, processing CGI
scripts, working with XML datafiles and net-connections. It
also uses own variants of routines, that was invented first
in the famous libraries CGI.pm and cgi-lib.pl.
SYNOPSIS
use web;
INSTALLATION
Copy web.pm into the Perl library directory and set it
readable by everyone.
If you don't have sufficient privileges to install web.pm in
the Perl library directory, you can put web.pm into some
convenient spot, such as your home directory, or in cgi-bin
itself and prefix all Perl scripts that call it with
something along the lines of the following preamble:
use lib '/home/myname/perl/lib';
use web;
