Thanks for the quick reply. I see you points. Is there a way to hide the extra parameters that we are sending through a link?

    You can use hidden fields, but that only hides things; it makes it only a little bit more difficult for a mischief maker to do bad things. A better solution is to encode the database query logic in a module or run state somewhere in the code, where users can't access it and you're not sending it to the client and trusting it to come back safely. CGI::Application is one good approach.

      Thanks chromatic! Youve been a big help. I think I have to do more reading regarding this CGI::Application. Anyway thanks so much for the help.
