Re: ASP.NET Linux equivalent?
Thanks, Mark. I have looked at dotgnu, but they don't provide specifically what I was looking for - web GUI generation and automatic hookup to a database. So far, www.dbforms.org is the best product I found.

A bit late, but.. Can't remember the exact URL, but search GOOGLE for GNUDOTNET. They have started to whip up a FREE version of MS's .net platform. Don't know if this is what you want, but. Cheers!

You can also use the tie() feature of Perl to abstract read/write to database. In fact you can write a pretty flexible module to figure out many things, such as table name, col name, etc...

I just use it privately at the moment, for a group of swimming clubs, and for a wine db. I am undecided about releasing it, and if so, how to do so.

It was (is) designed to handle the problem of creating widgets that are self-aware (knowing how to display themselves in a number of formats, knowing how to update their data source, etc). The last time I took a look at the code was a few months ago, and it was well on its way at that point. The project is hosted by sourceforge, so is a mailing list and CVS access.

Re: ASP.NET Linux equivalent?
The sad truth is that there is no automated way generate forms based on sql tables or definitions. The same data maybe passed with many different form elements. With some JavaScript sprinkled on top of it all, no single perl module could go near automating this task. The best one can do is to separate and automate the handling of the entered data from the form itself and leave the form page as close to html as possible. A setup where the form page uses HTML::Mason (which was already mentioned) and all the database stuff is handled by some template/defintion based system (I use something called form2db) is as good as it gets. //Artem On Wednesday 05 December 2001 02:08 am, Matt Sergeant wrote: > AxKit::XSP::PerForm is quite similar to the callback nature of ASP.NET, > though of course we don't have a GUI form designer.

If you are writing the same code over and over again, that's a good sign you need to start creating modules and using those.

Re: ASP.NET Linux equivalent?
AxKit::XSP::PerForm is quite similar to the callback nature of ASP.NET, though of course we don't have a GUI form designer. We could certainly work on auto-loading of values from a database, but I think you'll find it's already pretty easy.

ASP.NET Linux equivalent?
Hi, Is anyone aware of a Linux product equivalent to ASP.NET from MS? Its most attractive feature is the GUI construction of Web forms and the automatic connection of their fields to a database. Since I am getting sick and tired of writing over and over the code to process user input and store it in the database, a similar product would be a huge help. (PHPLens does something similar, but it only presents data in the table format.) This may be somewhat offtopic, but I hope that even if there is nothing modperl based in existence, then maybe the readers are informed enough to point me in the right direction. So far it seems that neither Dotgnu nor Mono have anything similar.
