  |  Perl / Cgi ? Something that i've come across plenty of times but could't quite put my finger on. What is CGI and what is Perl? Do they have a relationship? Someone provide me with a simple but detailed description of each one -- i'll appreciate it!

| My knowledge about Perl is a bit shaky but if I understand it, it's similar to CGI. CGI = Common Gateway Interface Perl is a common replacement to PHP though much less common than PHP itself. All perl files end with a .pl extention. I don't know much more... :p
