Clinton Wong, "Web Client Programming with Perl

Automating Tasks on the Web"

The World Wide Web has been credited with bringing the Internet to the masses. The Internet was previously the stomping ground of academics and a small, elite group of computer professionals, mostly UNIX programmers and other oddball types, running obscure commands like ftp and finger, archie and telnet, and so on.

With the arrival of graphical browsers for the Web, the Internet suddenly exploded. Anyone could find things on the Web. You didn't need to be "in the know" anymore--you just needed to be properly networked. Equipped with Netscape Navigator or Internet Explorer or any other browser, everyone can now explore the Internet freely.

But graphical browsers can be limiting. The very interactivity that makes them the ideal interface for the Internet also makes them cumbersome when you want to automate a task. It's analogous to editing a document by hand when you'd like to write a script to do the work for you. Graphical browsers require you to navigate the Web manually. In an effort to diminish the amount of tedious pointing-and-clicking you do with your browser, this book

shows you how to liberate yourself from the confines of your browser.

Web Client Programming with Perl is a behind-the-scenes look at how your web browser interacts with web servers. Readers of this book will learn how the Web works and how to write software that is more flexible, dynamic, and powerful than the typical web browser. The goal here is not to rewrite the browser, but to give you the ability to retrieve, manipulate, and redistribute web-based information in an automated fashion.
