Hello and thanks in advance for any help.
I am running Apache Stronghold 2.4.2 with modperl 1.21 and Apache::ASP 0.18
(just recently upgraded to the latest - 2.03 I believe - but the problem was
intermittent so I wanted to still check with the forum). Sure, pretty much
everything could use an update and within the next couple of months I plan
to do so but this software resides on a production box so there's little
room
for mishaps. I am waiting to install all the newest software on a new box
and
then transfer control.
So, as the subject line states, the variables in my .asp's tend to retain
the
values used in previous script runs. If I leave stronghold going for a
while
without a restart, I can go to one of the forms, load it (initially
everything
should be blank) and then see someone else's info already filled out. By
the
way, these forms that I wrote (eg. a registration form) are forms that will
initially print out the empty form and then upon submission do data
validations
and reprint the form (prefilling whatever passed the validation). The same
script handles everything. I'm sure I didn't invent this but I just wanted
to
make sure everyone got the flow of the code. No criticism please, this code
works great (prev. an IIS/ASP developer) and it's easy to maintain and
duplicate. ;)
So, after my scripts take the info from the POST forms and place it into
variables, these variables seem to retain the values instead of clean up at
the
end of the script. I use "my" throughout. I simply cannot see why the
variables
would become global _and_ persistent. I can't vouch for "global" I guess...
I
think it's only within a certain server thread and not the entire server
since
subsequent refreshes may yield other sets of info as well and many refreshes
later you end up cycling through all sets.
Again, I would appreaciate any and all help.
