True, but I think the question was about "dynamic page technology" which
I took to mean mixing html + server side language in one page. From what
I remember back then, perl was just used for writing cgi apps.
Of course, I first wrote dynamic pages using fdml to interact with a
filemaker pro db. Which, come to think of it, was also around 95.
