Re: Dynamic Web page content (Simon Cozens' book)

"EXT-Hartsig, Kurt M" <[email protected]> asks Elaine:

Apache web server.  Where do I turn for information / books on "tie this
stuff together"?

You go directly to http://www.arsdigita.com . You can pass Go; if you
complete the first four or five of their exercises you collect not $200 but
$1,000.

Your SQL will stand you in good stead, and your Perl will always be a good
tool. The ArsDigita gang are not terribly hot on CGI, because there's so
damn much overhead with starting up a new thread every time the client
clicks. They have solutions to this problem.

Explore. Enjoy.
