While it is beyond the scope of this chapter to teach you
how to program in a specific language, it can address some common errors that are
encountered when using these utilities. This chapter discusses Perl in the most
detail, because it is the language most often chosen for Web development.
However, the theoretical discussion of Perl equally applies to programs written
in other languages.
This chapter contains information about the following:
-
The Common Gateway Interface (CGI)
-
Programming on the VPS v2 Virtual Server
-
Programming with Perl
-
Understanding Java
-
Understanding Compiled Languages

Understanding Shell Languages
All instructions in this chapter are given as if you have
connected to your VPS v2 Virtual Server using SSH, and are at the command prompt. After typing
any UNIX command, press the Enter key.
