Web - A set of useful routines for many webworking purposes

 
SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
     This module was primarily made for UNIX/Linux-Systems.
     Parts of it cannot be used on other systems. E.g. the
     procedures for file locking demand systems that can use
     symlinks. If you use the modul on systems where symlinks
     cannot be used, fatal errors may happen.
     
SYNOPSIS
     use web;

ABSTRACT
     This perl module serves users with several useful routines
     for many purposes, like generating webpages, processing CGI
     scripts, working with XML datafiles and net-connections.  It
     also uses own variants of routines, that was invented first
     in the famous libraries CGI.pm and cgi-lib.pl.
     
SYNOPSIS
     use web;

INSTALLATION
     Copy web.pm into the Perl library directory and set it
     readable by everyone. 
     If you don't have sufficient privileges to install web.pm in
     the Perl library directory, you can put web.pm into some
     convenient spot, such as your home directory, or in cgi-bin
     itself and prefix all Perl scripts that call it with
     something along the lines of the following preamble:

             use lib '/home/myname/perl/lib';
             use web;
