    The Common Gateway Interface (CGI) allows web servers to run external programs called CGI scripts to dynamically generate web content. CGI scripts read information sent by the browser via the server and generate a valid response, usually visible web content. XAMPP is a free and open source package that can be used to run CGI scripts on Windows, containing Apache, MySQL, and interpreters for PHP and Perl. Several Perl CGI script examples are provided to demonstrate how to output basic HTML, use the CGI.pm module to simplify scripting, and pass arguments to functions.

    CGI

    The Common Gateway interface (CGI) is a method used by web server to run external
    programs, known as CGI scripts, most often to generate web content dynamically.

    CGI defines a standard way for web servers to run CGI scripts and to send their results
    back to the server.

    The job of the CGI script is to read the information that the browser has sent (via the
    server) and to generate some form of valid response usually visible content.

    Whenever a webpage queries a database, a CGI script is usually called upon to do the
    work.
    CGI programs can be written by any programming language.

    To run the CGI scripts in Windows Operating System:


    Install XAMPP.

    What is XAMPP?

    XAMPP is a free and open source cross-platform web server package, consisting mainly
    of the Apache HTTP server, MYSQL database, and interpreters for scripts written in the
    PHP (Hypertext Preprocessor) and Perl programming languages.

    Program1:

    #! "c:\xampp\perl\bin\perl.exe"
    print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";
    print "Hello, World!\n";

    Store the program in c:\xampp\cgi-bin\cg1.pl

    Execution:

    http://localhost/cgi-bin/ cg1.pl
    Program2:

    #!"c:\xampp\perl\bin\perl.exe"
    print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";
    print "<html><head><title>Hello World</title></head>\n";
    print "<body>\n";
    print "<h2>Hello, World!</h2>\n";
    print "</body></html>\n";

    print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";

    With this line, we're telling Perl to send the Content-type header to the browser. The
    content type we're specifying is "text/html", which means the content is of type "text",
    and subtype "HTML".

    At the end of the line you'll notice the "\n\n". The characters "\n" tell Perl to print a
    new line (like pressing the "Enter" key in a word processor). There should always be 2
    newlines between the HTTP headers and the main content, which is why we print "\n\n"
    after the header.

    To know about
    print "Content-type: text/html\n\n"
    go to the link

    Program3:

    #!"c:\xampp\perl\bin\perl.exe"
    print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";
    print <<END_HTML;
    <html>
    <head></head>
    <body>Hello, World!</body>
    </html>
    END_HTML

    The line, "print <<END_HTML", tells Perl to print out everything that
    follows until it finds the line beginning with END_HTML. This is an
    easy way to print out lots of lines at once.
    CGI.pm

    Some modules are included as part of the Perl distribution, these are called
    standard library modules. Comprehensive Perl Archive Network (CPAN)
    (http://search.cpan.org) consists of many modules that are not part of the
    standard library.
    The CGI.pm module is part of the standard library and it has been found in
    Perl version 5.004.
    CGI.pm has a number of useful functions and features for writing CGI
    programs.

    Program4
    #!"c:\xampp\perl\bin\perl.exe"
    use CGI qw(:standard);
    print header,
    start_html('Hello World'),
    h1('CGI.pm is simple.'),
    end_html;

    use CGI qw(:standard);


    we are using CGI module,

    qw(:standard)means we are importing the “standard” set of


    function from CGI.pm

    Program 5:
    #!"c:\xampp\perl\bin\perl.exe"
    use CGI qw(:standard);
    print header;
    print start_html("Hello World");
    print "<h2>Hello, World !</h2>\n";

    print end_html;

    Program 6
    #!"c:\xampp\perl\bin\perl.exe"
    use CGI qw(:standard);
    print header;
    print start_html(-title=>"Hello World", -bgcolor=>
    "yellow", -text=>"red");
    print "<h2>Hello, World !</h2>\n";
    print end_html;
    It contains Multiple Arguments :we have to specify the name of each argument with
    -title=> , -bgcolor =>
