Of the multitude of languages available, Perl has emerged as the language of choice for Internet programmers and Web developers. In fact, over sixty-five percent of all dynamic Web pages are created using this platform-independent language.

Perl Developer's Guide offers complete guidance for professional programmers wanting to create powerful Perl applications and develop robust Web sites. This requisite sourcebook covers it all--basic, syntax, references, regular expressions, flow control, in-depth object-oriented Perl, and much more.

You'll find everything you need to:

Master Perl as a programming language, with tons of explicit, relevant examples. Master the Perl programming environment (including profilers, debuggers, and the compiler) Develop reusable modules for both Windows NT and UNIX Develop and debug CGI applications, and add database backends to your CGI scripts Leverage existing Perl scripts and put CGI front ends onto them.
