Hello

I send data to a cgi-bin script in JSON format using JSON::PP

my $url= $Server . "/cgi-bin/DB_NewTerm.pl"; my $data = { record => \@record}; my $request = POST($url, Content_Type=>'application/json', Content => encode_json($data) ); my $response = $ua->request($request); print $response->content, "\n";

One of the element of my @record is a date. And here seems to be the problem, since I get the following error:

Tk::Error: encountered object '2019-12-23', but neither allow_blessed, convert_blessed nor allow_tags settings are enabled (or TO_JSON/FREEZE method missing)

Why is this data considered an issue?

Edit

This produces the error:

my @record=( $Tag1, $Tag2, $CommentAll, $today );

However, the following does not:

my @record=( $Tag1, $Tag2, $CommentAll, "$today" );

(Being $date the variable containing the date)
