Perl is not in itself a windowing client but it can drive libraries which display windows, as with Tk.

In the web context, if you use Javascript to create images in Netscape which automatically highlight on mouseover, Perl can modify that file on the fly to specify which images should be drawn. You would modify a template containing the Javascript on the fly.

If a gorgeous interface is the most important thing to you, Java or a DHTML interface with Javascript is the answer to the front end. Java or Perl can be used on the back end. Personally I find Swing too heavy and you can probably get everything you need for a web app through DHTML.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
