CGI.pm, a Perl5 module (by Lincoln Stein) used to write CGI scripts, is documented in Ch. 19 of Learning Perl (second edition). See the CGI.pm man page for details:
|
| 2 |
% man CGI # read CGI man page
|
| 3 |
CGI.pm is compatible with the Perl4 library cgi-lib.pl:
|
| 4 |
require "cgi-lib.pl";
|
| 5 |
&ReadParse; # initialize global hash %in
|
| 6 |
print "The value of 'foo' is $in{foo}.\n";
|
| 7 |
is equivalent to
|
| 8 |
use CGI qw(:cgi-lib);
|
| 9 |
&ReadParse; # initialize global hash %in
|
| 10 |
print "The value of 'foo' is $in{foo}.\n";
|
| 11 |
Other cgi-lib.pl functions available in CGI.pm:
|
| 12 |
PrintHeader() HtmlTop() HtmlBot()
|
| 13 |
SplitParam() MethGet() MethPost()
