in reply to CGI::Application design strategy

In my app I just call the other mode from inside of my analog of login_submit: 
sub login_submit{
my $self = shift;
.
.
.
    if(badlogin()){
        return $self->login();
    }
}

Update: Added 'return' (following rchiav).

    Since your login_submit sub has to return what's to be displayed to the browser, don't you have to do 
        if(badlogin()){
        return $self->login();
    }

      No, not necessarilly, if $self->login returns to a place where at some later point the output is returned to CGI::A then the return is not strictly necessary.

      Believe me, I know, I got bitten by that one yesterday.

      Yeah - you are right. That's how I did that. I can't comment on what jdtoronto wrote.
