Hi Edward,

I have the following design:

A single PerlResponseHandler for all requests. This handler based on the
path decides the action to be taken

For example, if the user submits to www.example.com/login, then the handler
delegates the request to authentication module, which will then either
display the home page (throug home page template) or login page again, based
on the success/failure of authentication mechanism. Since i am rendering the
page via template, i am able to generate the content of home page which i
then send back to the client, but the URL on the browser remails the same
(i.e. www.example.com/login), which is not true. Any suggestions to handle
this scenario will be great.

Thanks,
Jerry
