IT Club website moving along
I'm the one assigned with making the content of the website for IT club. I am planing to use some cool perl tricks for parts of it. I spent three hours on starting it today. Thusfar I have a (database) file which has news in it, an index.cgi file which displays the news using a format specified by another file (news_layout.html). I also have the file which will allow us to add and update news, addnews.cgi, part way done. I can add news with addnews.cgi but I cannot yet update news. I also will be making a file which acts as an RSS feed when accessed. This will actually be fairly easy since it is similar to index.cgi but even simpler.
The best part is, I'm actually writing legible Perl! I used subroutines seriously for the first time and I actually indented my code and used braces in a consistent way. I guess AP Comp Sci actually is good for something.

Just curious, why are you using CGI instead of PHP?

Because I don't know PHP.

Sounds like a good enough reason to me. It's just that PHP is so much more powerful than CGI and less resource-consuming.
