I know alot about PHP/HTML/CSS, so now I want to look into CGI. I started a long time ago but never got farther than outputing a simple argument. Are there any good sites with free tutorials or learning programs? Any help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

cgi-resources.com is pretty good.

Why do you want to learn cgi though? I've found using PHP is much better than using perl... (i started on perl and moved to PHP when i realised how great it was!)

Nowadays, i only use perl if i absolutly have to.
