Hi there,
Thanks everyone for the great information you have provided. I have taken
everyones advice and installed CGI.pm with the cgi-lib compat mode on.
I am still having an issue that is only associated with the mod_perl version
of the web server?
I have two variables at initial login $userid and $password that are
populated via the cgi-lib readparse. Upon initial login the variable will
contain the correct information. If i would hit refresh they double and keep
going everytime i hit refresh?
Ex: $user = joe | Refresh -> $user=joejoe | Refresh -> $user=joejoejoe
I dont get it, i went thru my code and cleaned it up to make sure the
vairable were emptied on every execution by placing:
$userid = "";
$password = "";
before the data assignments. And still get the same effect? Anyone have a
clue, is it CGI.pm or mod_perl, the same source does not do it on a
non-mod_perl server.
Thanks,
john
