Forms.
hi,
I am interested in knowing the best way to generate forms w/ mod_perl. At
the moment I use CGI.pm in combination w/ mod_perl. But I am not sure I
am using it correctly or if it's the best way.
Perhaps I should just use a HTML::Template?
Here is a bit of the output code from my prg:
$r->content_type("text/html");
$r->send_http_header;
print start_form();
$r->print ("What is the domain name: ", textfield("domain"), "\n");
$r->print ("");
$r->print ("What would you like done?:\n");
$r->print ("");
$r->print (checkbox(-name=>'email',
-checked=>'checked',
-value=>'ON',
-label=>'Virtual Mail/Exim'));
$r->print ("");
$r->print (checkbox(-name=>'bind',
-checked=>'checked',
-value=>'ON',
-label=>'DNS/Bind'));
$r->print ("");
$r->print (checkbox(-name=>'apache',
-checked=>'checked',
-value=>'ON',
-label=>'Virtual Web/Apache'));
$r->print ("");
print submit(-NAME => ".State", -VALUE => "Next");
print print end_form(), hr();
print end_html();
Thanks.
J.
Re: Most nonesense I've ever read about mod_perl
hi, There be truth to the reply. You can write all the C or ASM you like, but your algorithm is where it will count. Anyone who knows how to do BIG-O will know this. A good perl programmer will code a bad C programmer under the table with speed and eficiency. j. -- Method Digital Logic Company http://www.methodlogic.net Solutions for: -Web Design-Database Programming -Office Networking -Custom Applications On Sat, 6 May 2000, Matt Sergeant wrote: > http://slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=00/05/05/0137201&cid=250 > > There's a real good reply below, but terribly formatted (all italics). > > -- > > > Fastnet Software Ltd.

mod_perl of FreeBSD 4
hi, I have freebsd 4, and am going to install mod_perl on it. If I go to /usr/ports/www/mod_perl and do a make, I get v1.21. But if I go to the ftp site it has up to v1.23. Can I change the ports, or update them to get the latest files? j. -- Method Digital Logic Company http://www.methodlogic.net Solutions for: -Web Design-Database Programming -Office Networking -Custom Applications
Templates.
hi, I'm looking for some good ideas on developing web sites w/ mod_perl. One think we were looking at was to write template HTML pages, and run them through a perl prg to replace home made tags w/ data. Another was to write an apache mod that will contain/load the HTML on the first hit and cach all the pages and gfx (not too much). Can anyone comment on some good techniques to develope mod_perl sites? We will need mod_perl to be fast, interact w/ a DB, and run of FreeBSD or Linux.

Re: Cookies
hi,
Using CGI.pm you can:
print header(-COOKIE => $cookie);
Remember cookies must go out with the header and BEFORE anything else
is printed, even white space.

mod_perl vs. PHP.
hi, I'm looking for some info on the pros and cons of PHP and mod_perl. Can anyone direct me to some. I'm mostly concerned with what is faster or all around better to program in, especially for something like an eComerce site and of coarse doing DB work. Thanks, J.
