indeed, that link and i believe one other does not work, in fact documentation on perlscript is that sparse i'm writing my own. However, you can learn it fast by converting javascript/vbscript you know to perlscript code.
javascript/vbscript in asp does response.write ("blah") perlscript does $response->write ("blah"); there are minor differences but you have for more features using perlscript, AND it's multiplatform i believe.
