in thread What's the REAL DEAL with Perl $cgi->checkbox()

I quite agree with all the above. By "weird accumulated crufty behavior" I didn't intend to say all this behavior was necessarily the Perl community's fault. The Web is a wildly different place than when people crafted in raw HTML, and modern frameworks are built around making GUI's, not publishing documents. The base technology hasn't changed, but the expectations have.

#11929 First ask yourself `How would I do this without a computer?' Then have the computer do it the same way.

    Sorry a million pardons- I ALWAYS make a point of thanking kind monks who donate, with no expectations, their valuable time to assist me.

    I was looking over some past inquiries, found this one, and noted that although I read and gained insight into my issue, I had totally failed to thank each person who replied.

    I may ask some dumb questions at times, but I'm more than thankful for the answers. If any of my other inquiries went unthanked, it was unintentional. Most likely my boss sidetracked me mid-thank..

    As penance I wish EACH of you a great weekend!
