SpeedyCGI is a way to run CGI perl scripts persistently, which usually makes them run much more quickly.

Basicly a blending of the CGI and Getopt::Long modules, and requires the CGI module to function. The basic concept of this module is to combine the best features of the CGI and Getopt::Long modules. The CGI module is great for parsing, building, and rebuilding forms, however it lacks any real error checking abilitys such as misspelled form input names, the data types received from them, missing values, etc.

The collection of CGI::WeT::* modules allows a site to be built from three major components: (1) static themed html files, (2) theme definitions, (3) CGI scripts.

This is a helper routine for building CGI programs. It buffers stdout until you're completed building your output. If you should get an error before you are finished, then it will display a nice error message (in HTML), log the error, and send email about the problem. To use it, you must condense your program down to a single function call and then use CGI::Wrap::run to call it.

This module can either create form field values from XML based on XQL/XSL style queries (full XQL is _not_ supported - this module is designed for speed), or it can create XML from form values. There are 2 key functions: toXML and readXML.

You can use this module to decode form and query information, including file uploads, as well as cookies in a very simple manner; you need not concern yourself with the actual details behind the decoding process.

mod_speedycgi is a module for the Apache web server that interfaces to SpeedyCGI. mod_speedycgi saves the web-server from having to fork/exec the speedy binary for each request. mod_speedycgi only replaces the front-end portion of SpeedyCGI. The back-end (where perl runs) remains the same. No perl code runs within the web server itself - each perl cgi-bin continues to run in its own separate process.

Presented here are three perl modules that allow encryption of strings. The encryption techniques involved range from lightweight to medium strength. The modules are Rot13.pm, Otp.pm and Babel.pm.

The XML::CGI module converts CGI.pm variables to XML and vice versa.
