err. newbie code. ok thank you for pointing these out. will go a long way in my development as a perl developer.

We've all been there :) 

sub collect_data {
    my $self = shift;
    my( $page_data, $errors ) = valiDaaTTTee( $self->query, $validatio
+nProfile )
    if( $errors ){
        return $self->tt_process('collect_data.tt', $errors );
    } else {
        $self->validated_session( $page_data );
        return $self->redirect( $self->url_for('display) ); 
    }
}

on success you do a redirect get with a url_for('display') not 'mode2' ... matching names makes make things easier ...

valiDaaTTTee can be some something you write using Data::FormValidator kinda like CGI::Application::Plugin::ValidateRM

Want to inspect sessions? If viewing your temp or session directory isn't enough, you can always write a session viewer in your admin.cgi :)

Now to add sub validated_session { } and sub url_for { } and sub valiDaaTTTee { } ... redirect comes from plugin
