You may have already looked at this, but both Perl and PHP support Apache notes, which allows you to pass data (structures) between handlers. From the mod_perl guide:
Let's say that you wrote a few handlers to process a request, and they all need to share some custom Perl data structure. The pnotes() method comes to your rescue.
# a handler that gets executed first
my %my_data = (foo => 'mod_perl', bar => 'rules');
$r->pnotes('my_data' => \%my_data);
The handler prepares the data in hash %my_data and calls pnotes() method to store the data internally for other handlers to re-use. All the subsequently called handlers can retrieve the stored data in this way:
my $info = $r->pnotes('my_data');
print $info->{foo};
prints:
mod_perl
The stored information will be destroyed at the end of the request.
I've been meaning to play with it for a while, but haven't gotten around to it yet. It sure looks cool ;)

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
