Hi,
We need the fix for multipart forms introduced in 5.5.20 so go back to version
5.5.17 is not an option.
But the problem seems even worse because forms POST'ed does not work with the
CGI module!
We have to many Perl-scripts that use the CGI-module so rewriting them to read
directly from stdin is not doable.
The following Perl script taken from a tutorial on the net works if the form is
sent with GET but not with POST!
#! /usr/bin/perl
use CGI;
$cgi = new CGI;
for $key ( $cgi->param() ) {
$input{$key} = $cgi->param($key);
}
print qq{Content-type: text/html
<html><head></head><body>
};
foreach $key (sort (keys %ENV)) {
print $key, ' = ', $ENV{$key}, "<br>\n";
}
for $key ( keys %input ) {
print $key, ' = ', $input{$key}, "<br>\n";
}
print qq{<form METHOD=POST><input type="submit" value="Post Request">
<input name="postfield"></form>};
print qq{<form METHOD=GET ><input type="submit" value="Get Request ">
<input name="getfield" ></form>};
print qq{</body></html>};
Regards
Gunnar
