Re: $fdat not working when using POST

Looks like we might have found the culprit. I tried downgrading to 1.3.6 and got the same symptoms. In playing around with stuff, we added a trailing "/" to the action of the posting form (i.e. action="/web/application/" -- the index.epl file was handling the dispatch of the form parsing, etc). Et voila! it works now. I understand that this is an "apacheism" -- is it worth noting in the Embperl docs?

And thanks for the response Hoenie -- we don't use Front Page and I didn't find any .htaccess in my directories, so I don't think this was our situtation.

Hi Gerald, As far as I know, I am running under mod_perl with no CGI.pm usage (so, there's SetHandler set to "perl-script" and PerlHandler set to "Embperl"). The CONTENT_LENGTH is 43. AFAIK, this wasn't a problem for us using Embperl 1.3.x. Dan

Could you add a [+ $ENV{CONTENT_LENGTH} +] to your page and see if you get a value other then blank or zero? Gerald
