To be a real web designer you need to learn perl , CGI ,Asp. I would say this book does a good job.

Even though this titles say 24 hours. More time i think is recomended to fully comprehend correctly CGI. Peace out G. I love’s me the Lady’s.

I have been learning CGI/PERL/PHP for the past 6 months now. I am currently in an internship and my job is to update the webpage. This book was great! This book helped me a lot. I am definitely still a begginner at CGI and this book taught me a lot of basics. You won’t learn how to create professional looking guestbooks or message boards but you will learn the basics of how to create them. This book covers just about everything you need to know to get started.

This book encompassed most of what CGI is all about and did so straight forward enough to where a beginner could learn from it. It covers the basics of programming in a sense with all of its topics and how it’s structured. It wouldn’t be feasible to go straight from using the book to application programming, but like I said, it’s good for beginners to start getting a feel for what the server side world is capable of and how things work.

Dear Mr. Rafe Colburn:
Buddy! Just thought I had better write you to THANK you for your book, ‘Sams Teach Yourself CGI in 24 Hours”. I bought the book last Christmas, and though progress is slow, things are sinking in GOOD!
I just wrapped my head around Hour 15, Session (State) Management, and cookies. Your book is extremely well laid out, easy to understand, and there hasn’t been an exercise in your book that I haven’t been able to complete yet! The exercises are challenging and fun yet possible with your book. Once again, THANK YOU SO MUCH!
I have found it to be an OUTSTANDING resource for myself, a beginner in the PERL programming language.
