Tutorial 1: XML and Perl: Embedding XML in HTML |
XML is the standard that promises to free us from the shortcomings of HTML
by allowing authors to create documents using their own descriptive
markup. Despite the clear benefits of XML, it is still unclear how
authors should mix XML and HTML.
In this article we'll show how to turn your HTML files into mini databases by embedding
XML tags in your Web pages to describe the enclosed content. |

Tutorial 2: PerlHoo, Part I |
This is part one of a three part series to build a complete Yahoo-like Web directory. In part one, we will build a simple yet fully functional implementation in less than 100 lines of code using our operating system, comma delimited files, a dash of ingenuity, and lots of duct tape. |
|
Tutorial 3: PerlHoo, Part II |
We continue the PerlHoo series by adding the ability for users to suggest
new sites in PerlHoo. We will also discuss how and why a Web directory can make your
Web sight more valuable.
|
|
Tutorial 5: PerlHoo, Part III |
In Part III, we will add the capstone to the PerlHoo series by adding an administrative
tool that will allow us to add, edit, and delete new and current entries in our PerlHoo Web directory. |
|
Tutorial 6: Monitoring Internet services by name with Moniker |
In this tutorial, we will explore how to use Perl to monitor services
like HTTP, POP, NNTP, SMTP, and IMAP on local or remote servers anywhere on the Internet.
Since this script is a command-line utility, you can automatically monitor services
via a cron job (on *nix) or with at (on NT). |
|
Tutorial 7: URL redirects with CGI.pm |
Been wanting to track down where your users are wandering off to? Well,
we can't attach homing beacons to their Web browsers, but we can
track when a user leaves our Web site via an external link.
In this edition of Mother of Perl, we'll learn how to log this
subvertive behavior with a simple Perl script without the user knowing it.

Tutorial 8: RSS News with XML::RSS |
Learn how to add free news headlines to your Web site from any site that
supports Netscape's Rich Site Summary (RSS) format: make your site
stickier than a roach motel.
