ive got a rather medium-sized script capable of running hosting accounts.. i was wondering if anyone here was experienced in re-writing or converting it from CGI to PHP, this way, making it easier for me to match it into different layouts

of course. but the re-write must be identical, it must be able to fit into any layout, and the existing members must still be able to login. payment will be sent via PayPal after i am able to test-drive the script

nikolas: this script was paid for, so a license is required for any other similair GOOD script. unless someone wants to attempt to simply duplicate this script in PHP

I suppose that rewriting the whole script using the cgi script as a template will propably cost you a lot, because the one that will code it, will also need to understand the way that the perl script is working, and this is a tough one.

i dont primarily care bout the layout of the script as long as its similair and it will be easy for me to use PHP switch (as we were discussing earlier)

By saying template I mean that the programmer will have to make a php application that will work exactly as the perl script.

That means that you will have to read a lot of perl code before implementing the new one, and this is not easy, especially for someone that don't know perl much.
