HTML forms and piplining templating systems

2001-12-10 Thread Richard L. Goerwitz III
I've been using Embperl happily for several years now, and the only real drawback I've seen to it was (until recently) that it lacked a mechanism for doing inheritance/cascading. EmbPerlObject seems to remedy this deficiency. I've been hearing lots about AxKit lately. I'm curious about one
