Hi Coexec --

I am experienced with using the CGI.pm, and now I want
to rewrite all of my CGI's using mod_perl and
Apache::Request.

Maybe a silly question:  What are you hoping to gain by doing this?

Speed. Apache::Request's guts are implemented in C, CGI.pm is Perl. If you do a lot of processing the speed improvement is significant. See:
