• perl builder is the truth!!

  Pros

  i was a little skeptical but this thing built a CGI script for me from a form in an html file. it was so easy. there was very little to debug and that was just because i had ignored some simple instructions. once those corrections were made, poof, instant working script. it's amazing. really great software!!

  Cons

  unfortunately the price is a little ridiculous. there are too many free and cheap resources for a cgi perl programmer to justify paying $149 bucks for any tool. sorry solutionsoft:(

  The is one of those programs that the must have released before the finished all the work on this version. You save a script and try to reopen it, and a lot of your data isn't there. I sent them a bug report and they were very nice and sent me a fixed version quite fast. But the fixed version still did not save all the data. If you by mistake hit close before you save a script it will no prompt you to save it, you will lose all your work. The cgi wizard, which is the only thing that makes the program viable for non-programmers, is full of bugs, too many to list here. If you use the cgi wizard then try to use the "debug in browser" utility, it doesn't work. I don't know if it works if you hand code the script. But this thing is full of problems. If you want it, wait six months 'til they have it right.

  I still find the use of IDE's like this cumbersome. You are better of learning the language and using a test editor.
