Is the main page (from where you call Execute) also a Embperl page? I guess
yes, then you don't have to pass %fdat and set optDisableFormData, Embperl
will take care for you, just write:
Execute( { inputfile => 'process_form.epl',
param => [$whatever],}) ;
or shorter
Execute('process_form.epl', $whatever) ;
Does this change anything?
What version of CGI.pm you have installed? Maybe it will help to upgrade?
If this all doesn't change anything, does it make a difference if you try to
access the filehandle from the main page, instead from the nested page?
