    Before asking your next question you may want to take a look at http://perl.plover.com/Questions.html, do some prepatory work, and make your question more specific. Even a question like stating your current background and asking what beginning tutorials/examples/books people would recommend would be much better than just giving us a project spec.

    If you are unwilling to do any work on your end, there are plenty here with rate cards...
