Web reporting with MySQL, CSS and Perl
Paul Barry · Linux journal · 2006
In the March 2005 issue of Linux Journal, I used Maypole to create a Web-based database application in only 18 lines of Perl code. The functionality provided by Maypole is impressive except in one important area: reporting. Consequently, I started to research technologies for producing reports from my Soccer Club system. My goal was to provide a set of standard reports that could be executed from a Web interface.
