Amazon.com Review
Building dynamic Web sites often means learning about CGI--the Common Gateway Interface that specifies how server-based programs interact with a Web server. CGI Programming Unleashed shows how to use CGI for a variety of common tasks such as processing forms, polling users, hosting discussions, and implementing "shopping carts." The book's strength is its breadth, not depth--there are plenty of code samples, but they're fairly dense and you'll be left to do much of the interpretation yourself. Novice programmers may find the going tough, but experienced ones who want to learn how to use CGI quickly will be right at home.
