Folks,
Cross mysql - perl - browser questions:

I understand some of it.
I copied it from MARCS and modified it.
It works as far as display in a browser.
One posssible related question - when is the
new mysql book on win32 mysql coming out?

Can anyone someone please explain
the html "DD" code calling mysql and the
bookclosed.gif. The bookclosed.gif appears
to be a built in browser thing - but how does
the mysql search work?
I thought one had to run perl and cgi to get data out of mysql?
I have a virtual server installed on my local machine and
it seems to work well on html's - htm - etc. It is OmniHTTPD -
any comments?
Will I be able to access mysql tables though a browser using
httpd as a server?
Thanks for any help,
