    • There mere fact that this exists is both terrifying and intriguing. However you say that there's no POST content and it is terribly slow, not quite what I was looking for since I need to be using quite a bit of POST data and I need the site to be ultra fast.

      I am going to continue to look at this just because i find it interesting. Thanks for the heads up on this, much appreciated.
      • You could hack POST support into it. It's just a proof of concept and I didn't bother to do such a thing.

        If you need your site to be ultra fast, why the heck use PHP? Try PLP or if you can your own PerlHandler.
  • I also have sinned.

    I tried to talk the operator of a dot-org that wanted dynamic content and templates to install slashcode and some other Perl templatey stuff, but he was already using PHP for his Photo Gallery and other projects, alas. With the built-in MYSQL hookds it's not half bad, and it's *almost* Perl ... for what it's good for, we shouldn't need ereg_whatever_match very often. *sigh*.

    SO far it's all coming together rather well, but like someone else here said, if I have to write preg_match* or ereg_match* one more damn time, I swear to god I'm gonna kill -9 /dev/universe.

    *sigh* why the hell does it have to be so similar to perl? I'd be fine if it were widely different. and the slight differences are a major PITA.
