Perl and CGI UNIX/CGI/Perl
It's very common for web sites to generate web pages on the fly, accessing information in a server database to be used to create and display HTML pages on the fly - dynamic HTML. The pages are created by a program that runs on the server. Since VB does not work in UNIX, and since most servers run UNIX, VB programmers are out of luck. Fortunately, UNIX does support the very popular freeware language "Perl", which I call the "QBasic of UNIX". Perl is an interpreted language, like QBasic, with which you can write programs to run on UNIX servers and which you can call from your web pages. Perl is functionally similar to QBasic and the basics of Perl are fairly easy to learn. This part of the tutorial briefly covers UNIX and Perl.
UNIX Overview Fact is, most web servers use the UNIX operating system. If your ISP operates from a UNIX machine, then you cannot use Microsoft Windows/NT products on the server. Either you find a new ISP who offers an NT server, or it's time to pick up a few new programming skills.
One quick comment - Perl has been ported to the PC. I develop my scripts in Win98, then transfer them to my UNIX server. You do not have to have UNIX locally to develop your scripts. I also test out the scripts on the UNIX environment using the Telnet utility that comes with Win98 (remote access to the UNIX server from my PC).
