Apache::DBI keeps one connection open per process per unique connection string. If you have 175 modperl processes running, be prepared to cope with as many as 175 database connections. The source code for Apache::DBI is worth a look -- it's very short and easy to understand, and then you'll know all there is to know about how it works. ------- Mark Cogan[EMAIL PROTECTED] +1-520-881-8101 ArtToday www.arttoday.com

Ok, so you aren't really parsing the HTML at all, just looking for custom tags in it? In that case, just use s///. >I may implement IF/LOOPS/etc.. but not until I see the need.

Use the %ENV hash in perl. The environment is shared between the whole
request, so setting $ENV{whatever} in the PerlTransHandler will make it
visible to the content handler down the line.

Try:
push @RewriteRule, [qw(/cgi-bin/printenv /cgi-bin/slave.pl [PT])];
(Using an arrayref for the values of the rule.)
(I have no idea if that will work or not, but that seems to be how things
like [Perl]SetEnv work.)

My assumption is that it would >be a 'browser' thing so I wouldn't expect a direct answer from this group. Exactly. The Basic Authentication scheme requires that the username and password be sent with each request; most browsers store this information after it has been entered once, and hang onto it until they are closed down. If you want to have a timeout or logout system, you need to implement some kind of session-based authentication. --- Mark Cogan[EMAIL PROTECTED] +1-520-881-8101 ArtToday www.arttoday.com perl.apache.solaris.oracle "English is easy to learn -- all of the words are borrowed from C++"
