Go to the CPAN (you can there from www.perl.org) and download the CGI module and the DBI module. DBI is a standard RDBMS access module for Perl. You'll also need the DBD-Oracle module which is the Oracle specific plugin for DBI. Read all the docs that come with these modules and you should have no trouble. For more general web-to-Oracle access, you will also want to check out Oracle Webserver. Received on Wed Jul 16 1997 - 00:00:00 CDT
