The -nosticky option does not do quite what it sounds like it might. It just avoids the generation of special hidden cgi fields, but does not affect the stickyness of general form fields:
-nosticky
This makes CGI.pm not generating the hidden fields
.submit and .cgifields. It is very useful if you don't
want to have the hidden fields appear in the
querystring in a GET method. For example, a search
script generated this way will have a very nice url
with search parameters for bookmarking.
You're right, in order to avoid stickyness, you must set the value explicity. Either set it to undef or an empty string, or a specific new value in the case you mention above.
cheers!

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
