All,

I am still trying to figure out why my setup of mod_perl does not have
multipart POSTs.  I rebooted my machine, and found that, whereas I reported
before mod_perl would try to reload the page (which it should not but send
out a text/plain attachment for download), it appears the script (running as
a perl handler) does not see any of the multipart POST.  Vanilla posts are
not a problem, though.  Even if the information being sent via multipart is
_not_ a file to upload to the server, the information is lost in transit.

Here is what is odd.  

The same scripts/modules unmodified and running as perl_cgi are okay.
Multipart forms allow me to upload files, et cetera.  In short, I am
confident the problem is not with my programming.

I am using the code snippet, POST2GET, to capture the one-time read of POST
and storing as if it was retrieved via GET.

Any ideas how to debug this?

I REALLY REALLY would love some feedback.  I would love to think that all my
effort to stay away from M$ ASP are worth it -- esp. when I stand up to
defend Perl, Apache, and mod_perl in an environment that is decidely
M$-bent.

Thanks!
Ward
