Thanks for the idea. I've implemented it, and I'm still getting the same
result.
I've tried to make the problem as simple as possible. I've written the
following script:
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Whee</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<P>This is a test.</P>
<P>udat{foo} is [+ $udat{foo} +]</P>
[- $udat{foo} += 1 -]
</BODY>
</HTML>
The first time this page is loaded, it displays:
udat{foo} is
Reload, and it displays:
udat{foo} is 1
Each subsequent reload increments the value. However, the embperl logs
show no indication of a cookie being received from the browser. This is IE
5.5 on Windows 2000. The log segment follows:
[609]HDR: 8
[609]HDR: Accept=*/*
[609]HDR: Accept-Language=en-us
[609]HDR: Cache-Control=max-age=259200
[609]HDR: Connection=keep-alive
[609]HDR: Host=192.168.250.207
[609]HDR: Pragma=no-cache
[609]HDR: Via=1.0 proxy3.trusecure.net:80 (Squid/2.0.RELEASE)
[609]HDR: X-Forwarded-For=unknown
The packet capture validates this result:
GET /embperl/foo.shtml HTTP/1.0
Accept: */*
Accept-Language: en-us
Pragma: no-cache
Host: 192.168.250.207
Via: 1.0 proxy3.trusecure.net:80 (Squid/2.0.RELEASE)
X-Forwarded-For: unknown
Cache-Control: max-age=259200
Connection: keep-alive
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Date: Thu, 18 May 2000 11:44:49 GMT
Server: Apache/1.3.12(Unix) mod_perl/1.22
Content-Length: 283
Keep-Alive: timeout=15, max=99
Connection: Keep-Alive
Content-Type: text/html
No cookie was either set by the server or sent by the browser.
Interestingly, when I started Netscape 4.71 to try this experiment, when I
first loaded the page, I got "udat{foo} is 3". Then each time I reloaded,
it incremented from there. Perhaps embperl is using some means other than
a cookie to identify my machine?
What would you say is the next step in debugging this?
