Rating: 5 stars
Summary: cgi101 - excellent
Review: Jacqueline D. Hamilton wrote an excellent book which simply and succintly ties many perl concepts togeather; it is a must read ( I think it was Oscar Wilde who wrote he did not have the time or the patience to keep his literature as short or as clear as he wished - Jacqueline has both).

Please let us know what other books Jacqueline has ( or has plans to write ).

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Not the greatest intro to CGI programming.
Review: Not the greatest intro to CGI programming. Typos, inconsistencies in the example programs. Doesn't adequately explain some methods/statements. Completely turned me off on PERL. I'm still looking for a good book on this subject.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Un buen libro sobre CGI para principiantes...!
Review: Sin lugar a duda Jacqueline D. Hamilton, ha hecho un buen trabajo al escribir un libro para CGI de los 101. Si quieres aprender CGI con Perl, necesitas leer este libro, yo empeze bajando los seis capitulos de libro disponibles en PDF y lo encontre interesante como guia introductoria...!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great for Beginning Perl Programmers
Review: The 101 in the title says it all. This is a great book if you have never done any CGI or Perl programming. It will give you the basics very quickly and you will be writing your own scripts within the first few pages. Also covers more advanced topics. Its great for reading to familarize yourself with Perl and also good for reference.

I found the organization of the book to be somewhat lacking and the index isn't the best, but it still gets 5 stars.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Loses values after first 40 pages
Review: The first 40 pages are useful to give you the sense of how CGI functionality is implemented in Perl. However by staying away from the most used standard Perl module for CGI programming (i.e. the CGI module) except for a few pages towards the end, the reader is ill served (because they have to buy a book to get the real work done).

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: *MUST* Have Book!
Review: This book is a *MUST* have book. I got this book in the mail on Friday (Feb 11th, 00) and I almost done with it 3 days later. I'm in the Database programming chapter right now. It has gotten me to want to learn SQL a little better, after I master regular expressons. BUY THIS BOOK NOW!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent start-up tool for CGI beginer
Review: This book is best for you if you want to learn and start using CGI right away using Perl. It is easy to read. Concepts are described clearly with hands-on practical examples provided. Chapters are also well organized covering how to write CGI to handle forms, searching, SSI, redirects, cookies, database and e-mail. Essential topics of Perl for web development are all covered. For those who have some programming background, this book can turn you to a Perl/CGI programmer in a single day!

Rating: 5 stars

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent reading material
