Hi Randy, thanks for the reference. Is there no other way to get these same
results via the CGI.pm package? I would be a lot more eager to use the
Wrapper package if there was some sort of explanation as to why CGI.pm
doesn't work in it's current state - we're using the CGI package in a lot of
our code, and I'm not sure that the Wrapper package has all of the backwards
compatibility that we need.
I misunderstood your question - I thought you were trying
to do this just under mod_perl, without CGI.pm. The
CGI::Apache2::Wrapper package and CGI.pm are intended
to give the same results, assuming the tests pass:
http://search.cpan.org/src/RKOBES/CGI-Apache2-Wrapper-0.21/t/response/TestCGI/misc.pm
If none of the CGI.pm options to url() give what you need,
you may want to ask the author of CGI.pm, Lincoln Stein,
about the background for the present behavior.
