I'm just wondering as to whether your way of printing out errors to the browser is efficient. For starters, this is really just reinventing the fatalsToBrowser method provided by the CGI::Carp module. I could understand this if maybe you didn't want all errors to be outputted to the user's browser. But even at this point, you'd have to make sure that HTTP headers have already been sent to the browser, otherwise your code would just damage the output. If you're set on using this, maybe a subroutine call would be more appropriate, so that you can later change the error handling behaviour. Besides, then you won't have ugly exit() calls hanging around everywhere :)

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).
