Hello

Is there anybody with exerience about the coupling of MYSQL to the INTRANET by means of PHP or PERL?

I have plans to couple a mysql-database to an intranet page. The intranet runs under apache. It seems that mysql and apache offer two ways to do this 1. by means of php. I have found various sites where mysql-php coupling is discussed so this seems to be a frequently used approach. 2. by means of perl scripts. In the readme's of Apache i read that apache offers direct coupling with perl-scripts instead of CGI-type of coupling. With perl-scripts it is very easy to approach the mysql database. To me this seems the way to go, but i have not found any reference sites.

Can anybode advise me on the pros and cons or refer me to relevant literature/sites?

Thanks in advace
