Hi,
I found a similar question posted in the newsgroups
but no one seemed to have a solution. Here's what I'm
trying to do. I have a web page that does a POST to a
remote server. Basiscally, I'm trying to read the
post data and if it matches a regex, I want to
redirect it. Otherwise, I want to let the POST
continue normally (submitting to the remote server).
At the PerlTransHandler stage, I have a handler that
reads the post data like so:
my $method = $r->method();
if ($method =~ /post/i) {
my $content;
$r->read($content,
$r->headers_in->{'content-length'});
if ($content =~ /some_regex/){
# redirect
} else {
# continue with post
return OK;
}
}
I can capture the POST data and redirect the user just
fine. The problem occurs with the submitted forms that
don't match the regex. If I just return OK, the
browser hangs (because the POST data has been reset?).
I'll admit I'm a bit confused as to what's actually
going on here (still new to mod_perl). I read you're
not supposed to parse the form data except at the
ContentHandler step, but since the form is submitting
to a remote host, I can't really do that.
Any ideaas?
Thanks,
Bill
