Hi Hager,
I am new to this game as well. Until you find that book - Joel aka Howdy has
kindly pointed me to: http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Perl
Look under ..
Core Perl Documentation
Pragmas
Libraries
I've seen a lot of this stuff before around the web but this is
comprehensive, very well organised and has a useful/powerful search
facility.
Once you know the difference between perltoot and perlboot you'll be well
away! Seriously though, look at the CGI library it's good.
I've noticed a number of titles produced by O'Reilly Books
http://www.oreilly.com/
Advanced Perl Programming
CGI Programming with Perl, 2nd edition
Learning Perl, 2nd edition
Learning Perl/Tk
Perl Cookbook
Perl for System Administration
Perl in a Nutshell
Programming Perl, 3rd edition
I can't comment - as I haven't read them.
And finally, don't forget this resource: http://www.perl.com/pub
All the best, Mark.
