RH: RH:For example, just yesterday I lost several hours RH:because, in my haste, I accidently put the wrong RH:comment character in my perl cgi code. I put a "#" RH:when I should have put a "//" and the IE browser did RH:not give me any clues as to where the problem was. RH: RH:Is there anyway seperate the UI layer from the back RH:end layer when programming cgi perl?
there was a very long thread discussing this subject a year or so ago on the mod_perl mailing list. you may want to read it: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?t=102268841800004&r=1&w=2 personally, i use html::template. it works well and the html guys aren't worried about stomping on embedded code. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
