Re^4: CGI.pm ignore URL GET query string parameters

"Do you mean the invocation method defined at CGI.pm's Creating-a-new-query-object-from-an-input-file of CGI)"

No I was wondering about something like use CGI qw( -ignore_get_params ). If that existed it would be a simple way to ignore GET params without having to check $cgi->request_method().

No I was wondering about something like use CGI qw( -ignore_get_params ). If that existed it would be a simple way to ignore GET params without having to check $cgi->request_method(). Then no, not as far as I know. Why do you want to avoid `$cgi->delete_all() if $cgi->request_method() eq 'GET';` ? I cannot see how that's any harder or more confusing than the non-existent `use CGI qw( -ignore_get_params )` that you suggested.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
