You'd probably be better off with a book you could pester in real time... a
good index is at least as useful as a mailing list, and CGI questions
aren't really germane to this list in any case.  I recommend O'Reilly's
books on both perl and CGI; this list is an excellent resource in the rare
case of a mac-specific divergence from unix perl but is not intended to
involve much more labor than that.

Apple runs some beginner web-centric lists, available from:

http://www.lists.apple.com/lists/listshere.html

One of those, apple-internet-authoring, is set up for CGI questions, though
I don't expect they're geared toward providing a tutorial either.  Note
that older browsers may have some trouble with that page and all others at
the lists site; Apple's virtual domains are having some trouble.

ps: make sure you have the slightest need for CGI before you convince
yourself you have to learn it.  HTML has a much shorter learning curve than
perl or applescript, and it's more than enough for most people's web needs.
