Perl stands for Practical Extraction and Report Language. It is a text processing language that runs in a background on servers. It enables web server to deliver up web content in a fashion that is invisible to the viewer.

Perl is used on the Internet to write CGI scripts. CGI scripts are the programs that process information submitted primarily in HTML form submissions. With forms you can spawn automatic e-mail, run database searches and much more. Since Perl has its origins in UNIX it is commonly used on UNIX Web Servers.

When a User completes and form and clicks on the Submit button, the form parameters are sent to the web server. The server then calls the CGI program .The CGI program processes the data from the form and responds back to the server. The Web server then forwards the response back to the browser.
