Subject: Moving up from Sybperl 4.0 to Sybperl 5.0/web-to-sybase project; need help

Hello,

I just stumbled across the sybperl-listserv today and have looked
at several of the last months of the archive.

I am currently familiar with sybperl 4.0X (trying to upgrade to 
sybperl 5.0X) and I know the basics of HTML (I have my own web
site of static pages at
http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/roleigh_martin which focuses
on Y2k and the embedded systems threat to core infrastructures -- you
might find it interesting -- I have published 23 some Y2k articles in
the trade press).

Anyway, at my "straight" job, I need to be able to do updates and 
selects against a Sybase database on unix from within a web page that
goes against a unix-hosted web server (we use RS/6000 AIX computers).

Can you give me some starters where to look for documentation, examples,
etc?  I have never written a cgi script, so that is part of my task to
learn too.

I have worked with sybase SQL Server for about 6 years though.

Thanks!

Roleigh Martin
