thx, t. I got it to work for myself. Mojo and Dancer are very heavyweight. with some scaffolding, Placks's learning curve becomes a lot lower. CGI is deprecated and was the only other low-scaffolding solution. I hate php, but I can write a 10 line lightweight program to record the email of my visitors in a file.
sorry, I think Plack is a great solution. just wanted to help.
