The redirect can also be external. Just issue a 302 to the appropriate controller CGI script. Remember - C::A is just a fancy way of handling multiple requests in the same CGI script. If you read the rest of my replies in Why CGI::Application?, you'll see that I had some 4-5 different CGI scripts, each handling a different type of content, with a master script handling login functionality. So, do something like:

Go to the login runmode.
User enters credentials.
The validate function does "The Right Thing"(tm). (Probably determined by a CGI parameter.)
It then issues a 302 to the appropriate content-handling CGI script. This would be determined by a CGI parameter.

Then there are Damian modules.... *sigh* ... that's not about being less-lazy -- that's about being on some really good drugs -- you know, there is no spoon. - flyingmoose

I shouldn't have to say this, but any code, unless otherwise stated, is untested

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
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).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
