Thanks Geoff.
What you have suggested can solve the problem... i'm however, preferably
looking at deleting a set var via my apache config file, and don't have
a '$r' /request_object available there.
Doug et al, can i please suggest the addition of a:
* PerlDelVar or PerlUnsetVar
to delete/unset a variable in the apache config file.
I would make the changes and send in a patch, but i don't under the code
(with my limited knowledge of C) well enough to do that.
cheers,
simran.
