Your entire dispatch table can be replaced by the following 2 lines:

$action = $apr->param('a') || 'home';
render_template( $action, $action );

Oh gosh. You got me? .oO(rename the template...or `$action =~ s[samp][sample]`...or use a hash to tranform short names to long ones...or) Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.
