I'm trying to use taint, strict and Safe in all my
files.   I'm new to the Safe module and unsure about
this code.


#!C:\Perl\bin\perl.exe -w -T 
#!/usr/bin/perl -w -T 
use strict;

if($q->param("add_a_dir")){
my$newdir = $q->param("add_a_dir");
$newdir =~ s/[^\w\-\.]//g;
$dirext .= $newdir;
push(@message, "found param add_a_dir");

#my$mkpathsafe = new Safe();

#this doesn't go inside the sub add_a_dir
#$mkpathsafe->share('&add_a_dir');

#this goes inside add_a_dir but throws a taint error
&add_a_dir;

sub add_a_dir{
push(@message, "in param add_a_dir");
unless(-e "$ENV{'DOCUMENT_ROOT'}/$htmldir/$dirext"){
eval {mkpath("$ENV{'DOCUMENT_ROOT'}/$htmldir/$dirext",
0,0755)};
  if ($@) {
    push(@message,"Couldn't Make Directory:\n
$ENV{'DOCUMENT_ROOT'}/$htmldir/$dirext, $@");
  }else{push(@message,"Made Directory:\n
$ENV{'DOCUMENT_ROOT'}/$htmldir/$dirext")}
}
}
}

Error:
 Couldn't Make Directory:
 C:/Apache2/htdocs/hayfork/group, Insecure dependency
in mkdir while running with -T switch at
C:/Perl/lib/File/Path.pm line 147, <DIRINFO> line 2.

Can someone tell me how to use mkpath with taint and
Safe?

Thankyou so much for your time.
