I must admit that I have yet to write anything in perl as I had a (big) test this morning and was rather preoccupied. After I go through a few tutorials and see what is relevant and what is redundant, than I will gladly reply with a few links. Overall, though, perl seems to be a little more object oriented than is php. I mean by that, that most of the information is thinking about reusing EVERY PART AGAIN and not just getting work done. It seems that instead of printing text,, the users of perl are encouraged to put that text in a variable and then print the variable. I understand that php5 is also like this, but I've never written anything in php5 either, as well. Anyway, I'll go learn a little more and then reply to you with the tutorials that I find most relevant.
