Hello,

I have been talking (lightly) with some others within our organization about
different web technologies. I currently am a CGI.pm user and know it pretty
well. But I am getting the impression that technologies such as JSP and ASP,
are more efficient. In conversation, I believe I am hearing that those two
technologies are more robust, because they do NOT start a new instance of my
perl/cgi script each time the user submits back to the server? Is this
correct? And if that is so, do those technologies allow the ability to hold
variables across sessions? I will try and better summarize that last
sentence. Does it mean that one does NOT have to hold state (hold variables)
with text files, dbms, etc? Because if that is the case, it appears that it
would be much more efficient, and create a much faster, secure and better
way than writing CGI type scripts. If I have my facts clear, could someone
let me know, or tell me if I am missing something?


Sincerely,

Scott Purcell
