Adam, Here's my understanding from a quick review of the source code: ( vim `perldoc -l CGI::Application` ) There are a couple of possible cases, depending on your intent: 1. If you are going to return the second mode from within the first, each of cgiapp_init and cgapp_prerun will be run once each. 2. If you are thinking about calling the instance script, once to access each run mode, then each of cgiapp_init and cgiapp_prerun will be run twice, once for each invocation of the script. There is more on Sessions with CGI::Application here: http://twiki.med.yale.edu/twiki2/bin/view/CGIapp/SessionsWithCgiApp However, there are certainly Other Ways to Do It.
