Post data with Apache2::Request
Hi
I am trying to obtain POST data from a form.
I have these lines:
my $req = Apache2::Request->new($r);
my $email = $req->body('email');
My form contains a field called 'email'.
However no data.
The line: print $req->body_status(); outputs 'SUCCESS' seeming to indicate
a) that $req as an instance of Apache2::Request and b) that the object
thinks it has got some data?
I have tired sending the data by GET and using : my $email =
$req->param('email') but there was no data there either.
I don't want to use CGI.pm if possible
with thanks

Re: Post data with Apache2::Request
Hi Tyler
The cpan docs say $req->body('field_name') for POST data and seem to imply
$req->param('field_name') for GET data. Neither work.
I reinstalled libapreq .
I had the same problems with Apache::Request. Could never get POST data out
of that though I could get GET data.
Looks like back to CGI.pm.

Re: Post data with Apache2::Request
Hi Tyler
Solved! I didn't and should have said I am using Mason. It looks like Mason
gobbled up the POST data. (This must an example of the problem I see
mentioned that the POST data can only be read once). I can then get the POST
data from a Mason variable %ARGS.

Epic fail at reading comprehension. He's not trying to post forms anywhere, he's trying to read post form data using Apache2::Request, whole different end of the spectrum there sonny :) smime.p7s Description: S/MIME cryptographic signature
