help with rewriting CGI

["Raful Mr Mitchell H" <suppressed>]

I have a site that is written with traditional CGI (no cgi.pm ).  I use mod_perl2 but rather than run the scripts as CGI I want to convert them to mod_perl.  I have read Beckman's latest on mod_perl 2 and have Practical Mod_Perl.

 

Here's the question.  From what I have read, it looks like I should re-write my perl scripts as perl modules and make the appropriate changes, such as using $r inside handlers, etc.  Once complete, I can preload the modules at Apache startup.  Is that correct?  Also, I may want to use ajax, therefore, what modules will I need to run Apache2::Ajax?

 

Thanks,

 

Mitch
