Calander / Scheduling Code

I need to develop an application that will be a modified schedule but conceptually will look similar to what we see on the web for a TV schedule. That is time across the top (columns) with individuals as the rows. Does anyone know if there is sample code available to review as a starting point?

RE: Perl Editors

I would echo Mel's comments on UltraEdit. I really love the ability to write code on a Win2000 box and FTP it to my test machine directly from the editor. I actually use UltraEdit over CodeWright which was great when I lived only in the Winz world. Frank -Original Message- From: Mel Ma

Apache and cgi-bin directory - Redhat 7.1

I have apache set up on a Linux machine running Redhat 7.1 (local home network). The install (from rpm) placed the directories as follows: /var/www/html /var/www/cgi-bin /var/www/icons I can point a browser to 192.168.xxx.xxx and I am taken to the /var/www/html directory and the file index.html

What am I doing wrong?

I've installed a Linux box (RedHat 7.1) on a local network to test cgi scripts. The apache install creates the following directories: /var/www/html /var/www/cgi-bin the html is the default entry point. If I place a html file in the above directory a machine on the network can pull up the file

cgi-bin directory

I have a home network set-up to test cgi scripts. I have a Win2k box hooked up to a linux box. The intent is to write on the Win2k box and test on the Linuxbox. My question is where should the cgi-bin directory reside? My intent is to open a browser from the Win2k box and look at http://192.16

Web Test Sites

Can someone point me to a list of sites that allow free testing of cgi scripts? I had such a list at one time but have misplaced it just as I need it. Thanks Frank

Directory Structure under Win32 (Perl, CGI, Apache, MySQL)

Is there a "correct" directory structure under WinX when installing Perl and Apache for development and testing of cgi scripts? I know that perl looks for cgi scripts in the cgi-bin directory, but what about everything else? Thanks Frank

That would help a great deal. As a lurker (mostly to view code and to see how folks think through problems) and definitely a true "beginner," one thing that is very obvious is that there is a significant variance in what folks believe is a "beginner." When I read "oh, yeah yesterday I was develo

Where to begin - web resources

As this is a "beginners" group I'll save the "best book" threads to others. What are the resources available on the web (tutorials, etc.) for building web pages with Perl and CGI? I'm running under W2k although I can boot to Redhat 7.2 as needed. I have both the ActiveState distribution and also
