^^ would be cool if it didn't look so ridiculous :) i didn't really understand why he mentioned cgi either but let it fall. i guess i shouldn't have sense most people don't realize that cgi has absolutely nothing to do with running programs on a web server - it is a 'gateway interface' supported by web servers that allow a client to send data to the server (using get, post, delete, and insert iirc). again, cgi has nothing to do with *running* a program, sending data to the client, rendering a dom, running js - NOTHING! it is just a *limited* framework for a client to send data to a server. and, when i say 'limited', i really do mean that. look at socket.io to start reading on how cgi fails if you want. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: beginners-unsubscr...@perl.org For additional commands, e-mail: beginners-h...@perl.org http://learn.perl.org/
