I was a little annoyed by the tutorial's link problem at first but after I found the link to the individual pod files I had no problem creating a local copy via pod2html. I'm very impressed with the tutorial. It covers alot of ground. I'm only about half way through it so far. Thanks to my local copy I was able to figure out the proper links to the individual sections of the online version. For those that haven't figured it out yet: http://search.cpan.org/~mramberg/Catalyst-Runtime-5.7001/lib/Catalyst/Manual/Tutorial/Intro.pod will get you to the Intro section, and the links to the other sections of the tutorial work from that page. > Re the forward issue... I would need to take a closer look to comment. > Let me know if you are still having problems and we can figure it out. The tutorial at the above link doesn't appear to have the problem. I'm just digging into Catalyst but thanks to the very helpful replies I received to my initial post I think I understand the root of the problem. So, I'll take a stab at summarizing it and hopefully someone will jump in and correct me if I completely smeg up the summary. The latest version of the Catalyst Basics tutorial at: http://dev.catalyst.perl.org/repos/Catalyst/trunk/Catalyst-Runtime/lib/Catalyst/Manual/Tutorial/CatalystBasics.pod has a "USING THE DEFAULT TEMPLATE NAME" section in which the user is instructed to remove the: $c->stash->{template} = 'books/list.tt2'; statement from the Books controller's list method. In the next section of the tutorial a simple delete method is added. After it deletes a book it tries to redirect the user to the list method via: $c->forward('list'); Which executes the list method in the Books controller, then returns to the delete method and falls through to the various end methods and eventually the DefaultEnd or RenderView method gets executed. So, if a template hasn't been explicitly set the template name defaults to books/delete.tt2, not the books/list.tt2. There might be more than one solution to the problem. One could add the: $c->stash->{template} = 'books/list.tt2'; statement back to the Books controller's list method or perhaps could set the template name in the delete method. Right around the point in the tutorial where the delete method is added might be a good place to discuss when/where using the default template name won't work. Someone suggested using $c->detach('list') instead of $c->forward('list'). I tried that. When using $c->detach('list') from the delete method the template name still appears to default to books/delete.tt2.
