the request record can be used to pass data between different files of the
_same_ request. Data is only store in memory, so there is no chance for
anybody outside ever seeing this data. If you want to pass data to a
following request, you must use %udat. In this case Embperl creates a
session id and sends it via a cookie to the browser. Only the session id is
send. The data never leaves your server and can't be seen or modified form
outside.
