I'm currently running a cgi Perl application that has worked fine on IIS. We moved the application over to a Linux server and set up mod_perl on it. On the Linux server we're getting some strange results. When we click on a link for mugs (let's say for simplicity sake) we get 5 mugs. If we go to a page for shirts we get 12 t-shirts show up. If we go back to the mugs page it may show the 5 mugs but if you do a refresh (one, twice, or a few times) we'll end up getting 5 mugs displayed along with 3-6 t-shirts from the old link. What could possibly cause values like this to stick around but still get the correct items as well? I'm hoping some suggestions can be thrown out without having to post the lengthy code. Any help would be appreciated.
