I want to use PERL to power a web portal that handles the authentication of users (not IIS or Windows), that is database driven. I realize this means keeping state information (for which I will use CGI.pm), and all the jazz... I just need to be pointed in the right direction, and havent found any books that detail how to create an actual portal, just a bunch of cheezy books that tell you how to create HTML and FORMS with PERL. I will check out the book CGI Programming in PERL and see if it has relevant examples. Thanks! Oh yeah, Russ any more info would be helpfull!
