I love how the forum is written in Perl. I've done a few web projects in Perl and for the most part I've used CGI.pm as much as possible. Perusing the Code directory I see that CGI.pm is not used to create html, but rather html is hand typed. I can imagine why, but I am curious as to the reasons why E-Blah doesn't use the functions of CGI.pm. Are there reasons besides overhead?

Overhead is one. But E-Blah does use CGI for file uploading. Using CGI to make HTML would be hideous. lol

I do installs for $25 and upgrades for $20.
