Thanks a lot Mark, much appreciated.
Using PATH_INFO for obtaining the run modes worked.

Missing CGI parameters on html form submissions
I'm honestly not sure what your problem is, but here's a suggestion that
in my opinion improves the code, and may help.
In cgiapp_init, add this:
$self->mode_param( path_info=> 1 );
Then in your form:
<form action="" method=POST>
<input type="hidden" name="rm" value="set_action"/>
You can move the 'rm' to the <form> action. I prefer this because it cleanly
seperates your data from directives to used to process it. So, the new code
could be:
<form action="script.cgi/set_action" method=POST>
I assume you actually do reference some script in "<form action>". If you
actually do have it left as "", I wouldn't be surprised if that's related to
the IE bug.
I have built websites with CGI::App using the technique I describe and haven't
run into what
you describe (Although I've run into plenty of other IE quirks in web
development!)
