Many experienced Perl programmers will use special variables almost without thinking. Things like this are frightening, and it's why I'm sticking to mod_perl 1.x while continuing to read the experiences of other, more adventurous souls.

The chapter on mod_perl traps is big enough already, let's not let it get any bigger. 73, Ged. -- Reporting bugs: http://perl.apache.org/bugs/ Mail list info: http://perl.apache.org/maillist/modperl.html
