Poor CD information...

To tell you frankly upto now I cannot find where are the sample scripts mentioned in the book. Book is GOOD but the included CD is difficult to navigate.

Novice or pro, you can use this book.

Once you are comfortable working with CGI and Perl (which this book will either teach your or assist greatly in achieving) you will still find yourself cracking the cover often for those things that are right on the tip of your brain but you just can't quite remember. Not the best desktop reference book and not the best straight up learning manual, this book combines strong elements of each.

With the help of this book, I mastered CGI and was well on the way to my mastery of Perl. It shouldn't be the only CGI or Perl book in your library, but it is a powerful addition.

Read other reviews carefully.
I wasn't new to CGI, but I think the book is good for both novices and professionals alike. I brought this book almost 3 years ago and I do not regret it.

Many responses criticised this book - read these carefully. Many books contain history. Ok so there is a CGI script missing ? Show me a book that doesn't. I couldn't believe the webmaster who thinks there is nothing to show how to write a CGI script. Did he read the book ???

Seriously - does anybody considering buying this book think that it's not going to tell you how to write a CGI script ???

A reader remarks that he has lot's of experience of Web Design but this book is not for beginners. But the review from the beginner says this book is great.
