in reply to lighter alternative to CGI.pm

I'm helping out with a project that is using Perl from server-side includes on an NT box running IIS.

Damn. You're probably really close to being able to invert the structure, and turn the HTML into a template. But that won't help your performance issue unless you can run mod_perl.

Is this something you could use PerlScript for? You'd be getting some Cookie- and form-handling for free, and might be able to avoid CGI.pm (or a lighter alternative) entirely.

The Perl-Win32-ASP FAQ has details.

    There are a few thousand .htm files using this SSI approach, and changing them all to .asp would be a big deal here. They're URLs that have existed for a long time and shouldn't be changed if possible.

    How I long for the flexibility of Apache right now...
