4.0 out of 5 stars Great for intermediate & above users, April 26, 1998

By	Dave@classicc.com (classicc) - See all my reviews

I think this book is more informational than practical. Although I've been able to successfully customize some of the CGI scripts, I've had a bear of a time relating to the procedures and found no help what so ever in the error or troubleshooting department. All in all the scripts in this book are extremely powerfull, just make sure you make time for deciphering!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Coverage Most Necessary Scripts, May 11, 1998

By	Eric D. Smith (eric.smith@b2.wpafb.af.mil) (Dayton, OH) - See all my reviews

Great Book. Real World Scripts. Not an intro to Perl. Good coverage of some powerful scripts.

Best for use on Unix. Some work needed for use on NT. CD good, but check Selena's web site for the latest updates.

This is definitely the favorite in my library! I literally went through the entire book one evening after successfully installing several of the scripts and learned more about Perl than from any other resource or class...
