[new module] Apache::PageKit

["T.J. Mather" <tj...@thoughtstore.com>]

I have an addition for the Apache/Perl Module List, under PerlHandler's

PageKit		cmpO	Application framework w/ HTML::Template	TJMATHER

Here is a brief description of the module:
	PageKit is a set of Perl modules that provides an application
framework based on mod_perl and HTML::Template. It is based on the
Model/View/Controller approach to design, with complete seperation
of Perl from HTML. It includes session management, authentication, form
validation, sticky html forms, multiple views, modules and includes, and a
content management system.

For now, the CMS part is really simple.  There are links on every page to
edit the HTML template components, if the user has permission to edit.
These links link to an edit page which edits the HTML template using one
big textarea box.

What would be much cooler would be to use XML and a content editor that
would translate an XML file into HTML form elements for places in the XML
document that the user can edit.  There is an interesting chapter (7) in
Open Source Linux Web Programming on this.

I am moving this discussion to pagekit-users@lists.sourceforge.net, which
is a newly created list for discussing Apache::PageKit. To subscribe, go to

I got a couple of e-mails asking where this module could be found.  I plan
to release the module in a few days on CPAN.  I will make an announcement
on this list when I do.

Can you expand on the functionality of the CMS part?
