Ahhh. I've tripped over that sharp edge before. In public, no less. Here's my description of what I *thought* was a problem: http://www.erlbaum.net/pipermail/cgiapp/2008q3/000665.html and here's me eating my words and instead suggesting a small fix to an error message so that those of us who encounter said "sharp edge" are given a bit of gentle guidance: http:/www.erlbaum.net/pipermail/cgiapp/2008q3/000670.html If you add a 'use Foo::Dispatch;' up near the top of your foo.pl instance script, it'll run under CGI::Application::Server (although there seems to be something goofy with the dispatch table that keeps it from doing what it should, but at least the server part works...). g. ##### CGI::Application community mailing list ################ ## ## ## To unsubscribe, or change your message delivery options, ## ## visit: http://www.erlbaum.net/mailman/listinfo/cgiapp ## ## ## ## Web archive: http://www.erlbaum.net/pipermail/cgiapp/ ## ## Wiki: http://cgiapp.erlbaum.net/ ## ## ## ################################################################
