CGI or Perl? For a long time CGI with Perl was a popular combination so =
there are a lot of documents which conflate the two.

It is possible to do CGI programming in PHP (which you already know), =
but PSGI[1] is the flavour du jour for server side web programming with =
Perl.

CGI is still a plausible option though. It has the benefit of simplicity =
(but isn't the most efficient option).
