Hi hbradshaw, im afraid my involvement in this thread is restircted to the quoting of hash keys. There are others far more able to advise you on the correct uage of CGI than I am.

Good luck however, and a little thought, you may find perltidy from sourceforge (dont have a link handy sorry) to be a useful addition to your tool kit.

Regards,
