The
experience collected over years in Web programming
bring to us wonderful Perl module: WebTools.
That system has been created at the beginning
of 2001 and continues to extend every blessed
day, owing to desire that guide us! We are
witness on great number of special Web languages
designed for CGI world, but all of us, that
love Perl can not reconcile with "hardness"
of Perl scripts writing for the Web! Please
do not understand us wrongly! We talking
about trivial problems in every our Perl
project, we talking about ways and meanings
that programmer commonly use to provide
yourself with security and high performance.
CGI is not really nice and friendlily interface,
so with lot regret I have to say: script
development sometimes is hateful. Of course
WebTools can't solve all problems in CGI
standart, neither it is perfect. However
WebTools still continue to extend and enhance
itself!
Main features of WebTools are:
- Embedded Perl into
HTML files (default)
- Buffered/Non buffered
output
- Easy read of input
forms and cookies using global perl variables
- Flat database support
(perfect if you haven't SQL database)
- MySQL/MS Access
support
- Sessions support
(via DB/Flat files - php compatible)
- Easy user support
(all DB engines supported by webtools)
- Cookies support
- Attached variables
(move safely any date via CGI interface)
- Html/SQL templates
(INLINE/INPERL/INCLUDE)
- Mail functions
(sendmail or build-in mail client - pure
perl)
- Upload/download
via CGI Scripts (make easy download stats)
- DES III encription/decription
in MIME style (need secure?)
- Security settings
for your scripts (don't allow to be hacked)
- Php subset of functions
in perl variant (for Php folks that have
to deal with webtools scripts).
- CGI scripts now may
looks like html! (make your index.html dynamic!)
- <FORM> data to
Database and vice versa! That's so easy
with htmlparser library.
Perl programming is easer than
ever with webtools, even more than Php,
ASP and Java script!
Note: All cgi scripts in this site are written
in perl and WebTools.
Are they secure enough? Are
Perl scripts fast enough?
Note: If you are Php programmer and you
have to deal with Perl, we recomend to you
using of this module. It will help you to
enter painless in world of Perl and CGI
scripting!
Join us and feel the power
of Perl programming!
