Re: HTML::Template, CGI, pass template params to next script

To transport some data from one page to another you can use sessions, put the data into the url or put the data into the request.

Thanks, Boris! I had not heard of sessions before, so I did a little(okay, a lot of) reading on it. I like CGI::Session (meaning I actually understood how to use it). It also gives a nice overview of the various methods used to keep data along for the "ride" as a user moves around, and the pros and cons of each method. We don't have CGI::Session loaded on our Unix server, but I can (and will) load it on my Windows ActiveState variety so I can play with it. Then, I will make some fudge, carry it to the dba, bat my eyelashes, and beg him to load CGI::Session on the Unix box. ;-) Lori	[reply]
