about CGI

I am using filemaker 7 in my server side, I want to generate some server side script to search for the database and create some chart accoding to the result. Since filemaker do not support customer script in client side, I need to write some CGI code to pass the query and compute in my server side, anybody have some easy tutorial of Perl? IS IT a good way to program like that?Thanks

(i cant remember much about SQL... but it studied it a few years back, its designed to generate tables from searches on databases)

If your talking about Filemaker as in the crappy database program that 10 year olds use, then forget it, its wont work ever, try MySQL even access if needed but Filemaker will never work, it cant even import to documents right.

Filemaker is still the one which can quickly set up different layout and easy to maintain. Personaly, I prefer MySQL but do not have enough knowledge on it. Acturally, FM is not too bad as I can see.

MysQL is best rather then any other filemaker

Filemaker support xslt which can pass the client request to the server side and processing in server end. BTW, filemaker still a easy solution for small business although it is not free. Is there any front end application for MySQL in mac?
