ANNOUNCE: Apache::ASP v2.03
Hey, Big changes for Apache::ASP! GPL licensing and the new http://www.apache-asp.org web site. A lot of consideration went behind GPL, and I know there are pros & cons to any license. Note I will be gone on vacation for a couple weeks so hopefully others on the list will be able to pick up my slack while I'm gone :) CHANGES for 2.03: +License change to GPL. See LICENSE section. +Setup of http://www.apache-asp.org site, finally! -get rid of Apache::ASP->Loader() warning message for perl 5.6.0 DESCRIPTION Apache::ASP provides an Active Server Pages port to the Apache Web Server with Perl as the host scripting language. Apache::ASP allows a developer to create dynamic Web applications with session management and embedded Perl code. There are also many powerful extensions, including XML taglibs, XSLT rendering, and new events not originally part of the ASP API. To easily install, try CPAN's install Bundle::Apache::ASP -- Joshua _ Joshua Chamas Chamas Enterprises Inc.

IMHO sent_header is the wrong method name. The current function should be called need_headers. (When PerlSendHeader is on, you don't need to send headers.)

My code didn't need to differentiate between the two unsent cases which is why I'm only returning 3 different values. - Ken

Shouldn't it be fixed to return 1 or 0 according to whether the header has actually been sent? If need be, perhaps it could distinguish like this: undef - headers have not been sent (PerlSendHeader on) 0 - headers have not been sent (PerlSendHeader off) 1 - headers have already been sent (PerlSendHeader off) 2 - headers have already been sent (PerlSendHeader on) But I'd rather just have it return 1 or 0, and have a seperate method that tells you whether PerlSendHeader is on or off.

A couple of months ago I had a problem where a *very* simple script would crash Apache 1.3.12/modperl 1.24 no matter what I did. In the end I *renamed* it and the problem went away. Until I renamed it, the script was called... Test.pm 73, Ged.

Apache::ASP Response Redirect question
Can anybody please tell me whether the following internal redirect
causes the new URL to be sent back to the browser which then asks for
foo.htm to be served up, or does Apache simply serve up foo.htm
automatically ? The comments in ASP.PM are very cryptic.
$Response->Redirect("foo.htm")
Or is there a better (more efficient) way to do this ?
Thanks
Rod
fake browser
Hello,
I don't know where to go with this question, may be somebody can help here,
I have written a small program to simulate login to a site, but the site is
trying to find out if the browser accessing it accepts cookies or not, and I
wanted to know how to fake this, i.e. how to tell the program that I am a
browser who is accepting cookies,
I am using LWP::UserAgent to do the simulation, and I already told the site
I am logging to that I am mozilla/4.0,
here is a snippet of the code
require LWP::UserAgent;
$ua = new LWP::UserAgent;
$ua->agent('Mozilla/4.0');
$request = new HTTP::Request GET=>
'http://www.namesforall.com/mail/login.cgi?user=me&password=mine';
$response = $ua->request($request);
