Newbie help with mod-perl 2.0

[Svein E. Seldal]

Hello,

I'm running: Apache/2.0.44 (Win32) mod_perl/1.99_09-dev Perl/v5.8.0

I'm toying around with mod_perl handlers. And I've written this silly 
little app attached below which works partly. My problem is simple:

- I need to get the querystring (and possibly the xform contents as 
well). And I would like to receive it parsed (in a hash). But when I use 
$r->args() I get the whole lot in a single variable. And I get hints 
from doc's lying around that args() is depreciated. How can I get the 
querystring anno mod_perl 2.0? Do I have to parse it myself?

- The script below leaves a message in apache's error log:

Can't locate object method "request" via package "Apache::RequestRec" at 
D:/Prosjekt/designs/gear/gear2/Test/Test.pm line 49.

I would guess that I lack a "use Apache::SomeThing;", but I cant figure 
it out. (Mainly because I cant find references to it in any documentation.)

Any help would be very useful, please. I'm stuck. (Even if you replied 
with only four lines of perl code :o)

Thanks,
Svein
