to use CGI you do:
in the handler
use CGI;
sub handler
{
my $r = shift;
my $cgi = CGI->new($r);
then you can get the parameters like
my $someparamvalue=$cgi->param("someparam");
}
there is also a way of getting the data from the $r object ( that is:not using
the CGI package ), but can't remember right now how to do that, perhaps
someone else could tell, please?
