in thread CGI Filenames and decode_entities

All I can do is plead ignorance, my lord.

That line to include the CGI library is just a bad habit from when I first began using Perl.

As for decoding entities in the file name, I did mention at the start "In retrospect, I don't really need to worry about entities in the filename, but I'm very curious as to what is going on here."

So, I'm just trying to understand, and by no means trying to demonstrate what a virtuoso Perl programmer I am.

    Have you tried dumping the filename before/after with DD()?  sub DD { scalar Data::Dumper->new( \@_ )->Indent(1)->Useqq(1)->Dump; }
