I have started on a web app framework and it's working pretty good. I extracted it and then enhanced it quite a bit from the forum. It's much, much easier to use than pure CGI. It includes Kanarie for templates, FORM to routine translation (i.e. a form containing Name and Age could be translated into a routine call: on_form(sequence name, integer age)), it does data validation and will automatically re-issue forms with error messages/warnings, etc... (i.e. they forgot to fill in age or the age is 353 years).
You can download the web app framework from my SVN server: http://jeremy.cowgar.com/svn/intrigue/trunk/ ... There are more things I wish to do with it, especially add in SCGI and FastCGI front ends as well as mix it with a DBI to make things that much easier, however those things are a bit in the future. Right now it pretty capable. It comes with a simple example.
