Greetings,
This is my first entry to PAUSE, so I am requesting both a namespace
(CGI::SecureState) and a PAUSE account (BEHROOZI). The module that I
have created is a drop-in replacement for CGI::Persistent that stores
the CGI parameters in an encrypted file on the server. Due to several
shortcomings of CGI::Persistent (see below), the changes I made involved
a complete rewrite (Persistence::Object::Simple was removed, for
instance), so integration with CGI::Persistent was out of the question.
I have checked both CPAN and archives of [EMAIL PROTECTED] for a
similar module, but have turned up nothing. While I cannot provide a
location where discussion has occurred on the topic, I have been running
the code unchanged on the Price Laboratory School website
(www.pls.uni.edu) under Apache::Registry for more than a month with no
reported bugs.

ID: BEHROOZI
Description: CGI::SecureState (or whatever it ends up as) is a drop-in
replacement for CGI::Persistent that corrects the three main flaws of
CGI::Persistent, e.g. failure to work with Perl's taint mode, not
encrypting user data, and a lack of association between the user's
data
file and their computer.
