Re: Web Front End Advice

Hello Brad,

Exactly Bruce! That's why for most I suggest starting with APIs.. it
"forces" you to learn what's actually going on. Of course, I don't make
suggestions without a brief high level interview of the skills in the shop.

Using that logic (which I agree with, by the way), I wonder why you don't teach how to do it WITHOUT the CGI APIs? i.e use the regular envvar APIs, write stdin/stdout using the standard C APIs, and do URL decoding manually.

That's how I learned.
