Hi,

I don't know perl well enough to figure this out, but there's prolly a super 
simple answer.. I've got a perl CGI script using CGI.pm:

[code]
use CGI;

my $q, $c;

$q = new CGI;
$c{'old'} = fetch CGI::Cookie;

<does some manipulations on the cookies>

print $q->header(
        -type           => 'text/html',
        -charset        => 'iso-8859-1',
        -expires        => 'now',
        -cookie         => $c{'old'}
);
[/code]

Of course, that code does not work.. the line sent ends up looking like:
Set-Cookie: HASH(0x...)

I understand what the problem is.. The variable is a hashref.. The problem 
is, I can't figure out what exactly the $q->header expects for the -cookie 
line, or how to coerce the cookies data into what's expected. The CGI.pm 
docs seem to indicate it expects either a CGI::Cookie object or an arrayref 
of CGI:Cookie objects (-cookie => [ $cookie1, $cookie2 ]), but I can't do that 
as I don't know ahead of time how many cookies, or cookie variables I'll 
need.

I even tried iterating thru each cookie, pushing it onto array to pass on, but 
that lead to even weirder results and errors.. The only thing I haven't done 
(and want to avoid--perl programmers are supposed to be LAZY, right? ;-P) 
is manually walking the cookies and re-creating each one from scratch.

What should I do? I've run outta things to try..

Cas
