in reply to Structuring a Web site and security issues

From a security standpoint, CGI::Carp qw(fatalsToBrowser) isn't a great idea in production. You should consider logging instead. fatalsToBrowser makes sense during development (quickly see when code fails), but in production it's just another avenue for your website's users to gather information about the internal workings of your site.

    Thanks for reminding me, but that is just in there for development. It will all come out in production.
