in reply to Setting CGI::POST_MAX with CGI::Application

To send the user back to your form runmode, instead of using a redirect, you can just call the method directly, like this: 

sub upload_file {
    my $self = shift; 
    # handle file upload....

    return $self->form_mode;
}

    And what happens now when the user hits Reload? These should always be redirects.
    My criteria for good software:
    1. Does it work?
    2. Can someone else come in, make a change, and be reasonably certain no bugs were introduced?

      DC, I'm not following. The call to the default run mode should set the correct runmode param as a hidden var in the html ... so a reload should just reload the default form ... Am I missing something?

        A browser's reload function will reload the URL that was sent, not the form that was received. Basically, don't think of it as a reload of the current page so much as a resend of the URL (including all params) that resulted in the current page. It's a resend of the request, not the response.
