Hi monks, While im not able to use the $q->redirect($q->url()) methode, i have written a small script which creates a token, sends it per hidden-tag, and saves it in a session. On a reload, the session value and the POST-data value are the same, and the script prints an error message. This works quite good, except if you hit the submit-button realy realy fast serveral times in a row -than it complains about a reload which never happend. Does anybody know why this happens?
#!/usr/bin/perl use strict; use warnings; use CGI; use CGI::Session; use CGI::Carp qw(fatalsToBrowser); use Time::HiRes qw(gettimeofday); use Digest::SHA qw(sha256_hex); use HTML::Template::Compiled; my $q = new CGI(); my $token = uniqid(); my $s = new CGI::Session; my $t = HTML::Template::Compiled->new(path => [ '.' ], filename => 'test.tmpl', open_mode => ':utf8', tagstyle => [ '+tt' ], defa +ult_escape => 'HTML_ALL'); $t->param(token => $token); print $s->header(), $t->output; check_reload(); $s->param(token => $q->param('token')); sub check_reload { if( $q->param('token') && ($s->param('token') eq $q->param('token' +))) { print "Error: RELOAD"; } } sub uniqid { my($s,$us)=gettimeofday(); my($v)=sprintf("%06d%5d%06d",$us,substr($s,-5),$$); $v = sha256_hex($v); return $v; }
test.tmpl:
<form action="test.pl" method="post"> <input type="hidden" name="token" value="[%= token%]"> <input type="submit" value="Submit"> </form>
Regars,
