in thread CGI scoping question

(Bows head) Fascinating, and an issue I would not have guessed. http://127.0.0.1/id/bin/example.pl?exec=list&table=users&orderby=10 has lines
my $index_url = $q->url_param('orderby'); my $index = $q->param('orderby'); my $desc_url = $q->url_param('desc'); my $desc = $q->param('desc');
and produces <!-- variables (index, desc, index_url, desc_url) are (1, , 10, ) -->. The namespace collision did me in.
