Re: Re: Different ways of including files in a CGI Script

Well I mentioned the modules to give an overview of the situation. Actually the HEAD file is just HTML past the first body tag. CGI.pm takes care of the header. I also have $! in place for error handling. Also I have already set up a site with jcwren. But as you noted about running a business from the server, I am looking to do more. What is funny is JCWREN's server offers more for free :-). I have thought about ways of uploading ths source code of modules to my hosting site and using the modules that way (also an idea from a fellow monk). I will be looking into that this week.

Rosehosting have pushed some advertising Perlmonks way so deserve a plug. I have had a VS with them for 6 months and have been very impressed with the bandwidth and uptime. You can get a virtual server with full SSH root access so you can install/do more or less whatever you want for $29US a month. The bandwith they have is excellent and the average server load rarely exceeds 5% average. They take about a day to set up your server. You get a pretty functional version of Redhat 7.3, sendmail, Apache 1.3.23 http and https mod_perl (but you really need to upgrade that to 1.3.27 for security) + perl 5.6.1 They advertise MYSQL and postgres (these were not installed) but build easily from source.

They have gone the M$ way and have a lot of services running by default that you will want to kill of but besides that it is a pretty fair deal.
