I have a script that has -T on the hashbang line. I normally call it using the Unix method ./script.pl (having chmod 7**'ed it). No problem.
The same script generates a taint error at line 1 when executed using "perl script.pl". This stops the program before it gets started. Everything goes back to normal when using "perl -T script.pl" to execute. But this is less than ideal. I don't want everyone who might use the script to have to learn to use the -T switch when executing. Is there a way to ensure taint checking without having to explicitly explain this to potential users?

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).
