| | Lincoln Stein states, "This perl 5 library uses objects to create Web fill-out forms on the fly and to parse their contents. It is similar to cgi-lib.pl in some respects. It provides a simple interface for parsing and interpreting query strings passed to CGI scripts. However, it also offers a rich set of functions for creating fill-out forms. Instead of remembering the syntax for HTML form elements, you just make a series of perl function calls. An important fringe benefit of this is that the value of the previous query is used to initialize the form, so that the state of the form is preserved from invocation to invocation. Everything is done through a ``CGI'' object. When you create one of these objects it examines the environment for a query string, parses it, and stores the results. You can then ask the CGI object to return or modify the query values. CGI objects handle POST and GET methods correctly, and correctly distinguish between scripts called from <ISINDEX> documents and form-based documents. In fact you can debug your script from the command line without worrying about setting up environment variables." |

| This is the best module out there. In fact, I think it comes with Perl now. Many other scripts make use of this module, so it is a definite must! |

| CGI.pm is a must! Whether or not it promotes laziness, it is truly an essential lib and is used extensively throughout the Perl world. |

| This is the de facto standard module for CGI. The only thing I don't like is that it encourages embedding HTML generating code in your script which advanced programmers know gets you into trouble for large projects. But this module is standard and currently a must have for all perl developers |

| It's the standard for programming CGI in Perl for a reason. Promotes lazyness? That's what Perl is all about! =) Makes life simple. I can't do without it. |

| I truly respect this excellent programmer's work, but cannot give a higher rating because of how it discourages lazy (unfortunately most) Perl programmers from learning CGI -- as a result, *another* lib is needlessly loaded by otherwise puny cgi calls and thus burdens the server. |

| It's fast; it's portable; it's a standard Perl module, so you know it's good. |
