I didn't see any replies or comments on my previous message on this (see below). I just tried using the form again to add a website, and it still appears to be broken. This doesn't look good to anybody trying to use the Embperl website, particularly since it appears impossible to grow the list of sites using Embperl.

I think potential new users of Embperl will likely search out the page listing websites that use it. If this page isn't being updated then it makes Embperl look rather dead. I would say that it's worth fixing.

Incidentally, I just noticed that on the submission form it says "Owner: [EMAIL PROTECTED]". What does this mean? Why is he the "owner" of the "Sites using Embperl" page? Surely Embperl can run its own little page listing sites that use it, or am I missing something here?

Thanks,

-Neil

Subject: "Sites using Embperl" form is broken

I tried adding one of my websites to the "Sites using Embperl" list, using the 
form at
http://perl.apache.org/embperl/db/add.-category_id-2-.epl. The other night it 
gave me a proxy error,
and when I tried again today it gave me back a message saying:

Add a new item to News
The following entry has been sucessfully added/modified to the database

Then there followed a huge list (looks like a database dump) of what looks like 
news items, with
many fields repeated multiple times. So, apparently this isn't hooked up to the 
right database,
since I wasn't trying to add a news item.
