• TheCgiSite.com - A directory-style resource that links and reviews everything related with programming. Here, there are hundreds of free/commercial scripts to download in various popular languages, ranging from Perl and JavaScript to ASP and C++. With easy navigation and great content, it certainly lives up to its motto, "The mother of all programming sites". (Recommended)

• CGI 2 You - This is one of our favourite free CGI Web sites. It's well-designed, easy to navigate and serves up some extremely useful scripts. At CGI2You.com, a free counter, voters poll, message board and guestbook are all provided free of charge, and they're hosted remotely, too. So you needn't have any knowledge of programming or scripting. Just register, then add the code.

• CGIScript-Directory.com - Here's a great directory of categorised links to scripts written in Perl, PHP, ASP, Java, JavaScript and various other languages. There are some commercial scripts featured here, but the vast majority of them are completely free, so you needn't pay. As well as scripts you install yourself, "remotely hosted" script services are also reviewed here.

• Matt's Script Archive - Matt's Script Archive is without a doubt one of the most popular CGI resource/download sites on the Internet. Matt has a fine collection of useful scripts, including: "simple search" (allows users to search for pages on your domain), form mail (sends the contents of a form to your e-mail address), free for all links (start your own FFA links page), and many more.

• The CGI Resource Index - Arguably the most visited site for free (and commercial) script resources. This "FreebyWeb.com favourite" features a searchable directory of free Perl scripts, C++ scripts, links to remotely hosted CGI, documentations, books and even a job advertisement section. Users can rate each script on a scale from 1-5 and leave brief messages for other visitors to read. 

• HotScripts.com - The "Web Development Powerhouse" is much more than a directory of CGI scripts. It contains links and reviews to every popular type of programming language, such as Perl, Java, JavaScript, C and C++, PHP, Python, ASP, XML and many others. We've found the site a breeze to browse through, and there's plenty scripts here to see (over 10,000 in over 900 categories).

• ScriptSearch.com - Internet.com's ScriptSearch is an excellent portal-style resource for everything CGI and programming related. Their main categories include ASP code, Perl, Java and XML, which are organised into a neat, searchable directory. The Web site is updated regularly (usually every day) and their newest additions are highlighted at the top of the page with a "new' image.

• CGI - Works - As well as providing commercial scripts, CGI Works features some freeware downloads. The free AutoRank script allows you to set up your own topsite list. The HTML coding can be customised to suit the layout and colour scheme of your site. Other freeware scripts are currently under development (AutoPost, AutoGallery, etc.), and should be fully functional shortly.

• Only PHP - Amongst various resources, articles and features, this site provides free and commercial scripts in a growing directory. Only PHP is an ideal starting point for anybody wishing to experiment with PHP. Links to PHP communities can be found, where you can discuss scripting topics with other Webmasters. Here, you'll also find numerous PHP related software downloads.
