You should be able to wrap the session creation inside an eval so that if
the session has expired, your code doesn't break, it silently creates a new
session behind the scenes.
That's if you have this requirement.

Although I am sure there are people who turn off cookies, I believe that
there are many more people who couldn't care less and will leave them on.
However, I do concede that forcing users to use cookies for an open
internet site is silly. And it is becoming a lot sillier for eCommerce as
technologies like PDAs become more prevalent for people doing quick
searches and the like on the Web (PDAs typically do not implement cookie
capabilities)

If you are considering writing subclasses that do similar things to CGI.pm,
you might consider looking at CGI.pm 3.0 as the various features (eg HTML
generation) are more broken out... And then the two would run more parallel

Yes you get the benefit of shared modules. PerlRun only differs from

As for leaking memory like a sieve? That is not unexpected with PerlRun

You need to clear out the $ENV{PATH} variable. That is the insecure
