Need Help??

in reply to CGI.pm form clearing

Try setting -override=>1 as in the code below

#!/usr/bin/perl -w

use strict;

use CGI;
use CGI::Carp qw(fatalsToBrowser);


my $page = new CGI;

print $page->header();
print $page->start_html();
print $page->startform(-method=>'POST');
print $page->textfield(-name=>'field1', override=>1);
print $page->submit(-name=>'submit', -value=>'Submit');
print $page->endform();

print $page->end_html;

the -override parameter is accepted by all methods that
generate form elements.

Hope this helps
