h2o.cgi, which is running on the h2o server allows you to, among other things:
This is the imagemap or the U.S. seen on many of the WRD pages. It comes as
a compressed tar file containing the image as a .gif file and the .imf
imagemap file. The .imf file can be modified with a text editor to fit a

Below is a sample use of wasnew
<!--#exec cmd="/home/www/ssi/wasnew June 17,

The program rotates through three icons of decreasing vividness after 1 week, 2 weeks, and 4 weeks respectively. After 4 weeks no image is displayed. The icons and times are configurable in the perl program. See the included README file for details. This program has also been written in to the h2o.cgi family of tools
The classgrep program can be used as a server-side include to pull bits of html from other documents on your site. The bit of html that you wish to extract must be tagged with an html 4.0 class. A DIV tag, with an associated class, can be used to surround the text that you wish to be able to extract. This program has also been written in to the h2o.cgi family of tools, which also documents classgrep.

Req is a free email request tracking system which had a perl based web interface designed for it. Read the article "A Free Problem-Tracking Program Gets a New Look" in the April 98 issue of the magazine WebTechniques to find the code and background.
On Web server water.usgs.gov a tool for automatically processing forms in a generic way has been installed. This Perl script can send a result of any form in e-mail, and/or save it to file. For instructions, go to: http://water.usgs.gov/cgi-bin/process_form. The help is a bit short and cryptic; You need to post the form to the URL given above, and you can set hidden variables to control how the form is processed and what to do with the results.
