Hi Joshua!

Thank you for the quick reply and the version 2.21! I installed it, but
semicolons still don't work. I looked a little at the ASP.pm code and compared
the version 0.09 to version 2.21. I may be completely wrong, but it looked to
me that in version 0.09, you used the method parse_params in the CGI.pm module
to parse the query string, while in 2.21, the ASP.pm method ParseParams is
used. Parse_params in CGI.pm does a split(/[&;]/,$tosplit), while ParseParams
in ASP.pm does a  split /\&/, $string, -1. Could this be the difference?

Anyway, this is not a "show stopper" for me, and I wouldn't want you to feel
the need to change something that might break something else. I just have a
faint memory of having read somewhere that semicolons were preferable to
ampersands when delimiting query string paramaters, which is why I used them in
the first place.

Cheers

/Anders

PS. Thanks for an absolutely top class piece of software, we've been using it
in an intranet application (Apache, Oracle as database engine, all on a Linux
platform) for a couple of years now with no problems whatsoever.
