For example:
<form action="http://example.com/?param1=foo¶m2=bar" method="post">

The important question is why do you care about "most CGI libraries"? You should pick the library... .
As noted by comments to your question, CGI.pm is OK
CGI::Simple is OK
EmbPerl 's %fdat is OK

I was just wondering - are there any Exceptions defined in the .NET Framework that I shouldn't throw in my own code, or that it is bad practice to? Should I write my own?

Apart from the google/bigtable scenario, when shouldn't you use a relational database? Why not, and what should you use? (did you learn 'the hard way'?)

I've seen this come up here a few times, but in the postings I've seen, no one explained it. Why shouldn't I extend JFrame (or any component)? Are there conditions where I should extend a component, or is this a firm rule that you don't?

However, it's best to use object composition rather than inheritance if you are simply using a JFrame .
If your application REALLY is just a JFrame, go ahead and extend it .

From what I've found, Unity seems much easier to get running if your code doesn't have full trust .
One reason to use Unity is if you're needing to work in a medium trust environment .
