well, I must say - thats a gutsy thing to do. Upgrade a production
server to yet unreleased CVS versions of processing code. Nice.
Actually, I was thinking of doing the same - just haven't gotten there
yet. ;-)
If you don't need the HTML munging, you might be able to avoid the
problem by turning it off. In 2.0b (Embperl) you can choose syntax.
Snippit from the README.v2:
========
syntax / EMBPERL_SYNTAX / [$ syntax $]
Used to tell Embperl which syntax to use inside a page. Embperl comes with
the following syntaxes:
- EmbperlHTML # all the HTML tags that Embperl recognizes by default
- EmbperlBlocks # all the [ ] blocks that Embperl supports
- Embperl # (default; contains EmbperlHtml and EmbperlBlocks)
========
So in the configuration file (httpd.conf or however), enter a
'EmbperlBlocks' for the EMBPERL_SYNTAX. (it defaults to 'Embperl')
This might work as your first email suggests that dynamic content is
fine. If you need HTML munging, perhaps a proper value for escmode
might do trick.
Hope it works out!
