CodeJunkie has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
Hi,
This has been something i've been putting off for a while, but I think the time has come for me to take those first brave steps and check out the super fast world of mod_perl.
Can anyone give me any advice where to start? I've tried doing google searches for information about mod perl and have found the main websites like http://perl.apache.org/ but I really need some help and examples to get me started.
How different is mod_perl programming compared to standard Perl? Can anyone recommend a good book? Something published by O'Reily maybe?
Any advice, comments or thoughts on mod_perl would be greatly appreciated, it seems to have been neglected on this site (unless i'm not looking in the right places...)
Cheers,
Tom
