Re: Multiple CGI parameters

Greetings,
For some reason my first attempt at posting didn't work out
No matter... I would suggest looking at the Vars() method/function in CGI, which will give you all your parameters in a nice neat hash. There is also example code to handle multi-valued parameters.

Vars does have its problems (mainly, it concatenates duplicate variables, using the "\0" character) But in general, using a hash really is a lot more secure than trying to do what the OP wants. Especially considering that perl uses quite a lot of special variables that could be overwritten that way (and that's assuming the code itself uses lexicals exclusively, which it probably doesn't).

(mainly, it concatenates duplicate variables, using the "\0" character) I just ran into that issue and spent a few days trying to figure out what I thought was a UTF-8 encoding issue. So much fun.	[reply]
