self_url() w/o CGI in MP2

rkg has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hi. I'm using mod_perl 2, and I am trying to avoid loading CGI. Sans CGI, how can I determine self_url() to do a self-redirect? I tried this

        my $self_uri = APR::URI->parse($r->pool,$r->uri)->unparse;
        $r->headers_out->set(Location => $self_uri . "&r2=1");
        return Apache::REDIRECT;
[download]

but this gives a partial URL, not the full expansion. Any advice?

This works on my apache server `my $self_url = 'http://' . $ENV{SERVER_NAME} . $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME};` [download]	[reply] [d/l]

Will that also give you the parameters passed in? I've got some reports that need to change the display parameter for various URLS, but leave all the other parameters the same ... Or, would I have to rebuild the parameter string myself? ------ We are the carpenters and bricklayers of the Information Age.

No, but if you are doing a GET, this shoud do it. `my $self_url = "http://$ENV{SERVER_NAME}/$ENV{SCRIPT_NAME}?$ENV{QUERY_ +STRING}";` [download] If you are doing a POST, then you'll have to read in STDIN to get your parameters. - Tom	[reply] [d/l]
