This is a somewhat obscure feature. Using both GET and POST fields is fairly uncommon, and in those instances you might want to keep the two types apart (e.g. to prevent parameter name conflicts). CGI.pm does this separation for you, even if you don't want it to. If you submit both GET and POST parameters, CGI.pm will make only the POST parameters available through its param function. However, it doesn't throw away the GET params, it just makes you insist that you want them.

To that end, use the url_param function instead of param to fetch the GET values. The two functions work exactly the same way, except you can't set url_params.

See the MIXING POST AND URL PARAMETERS section of the CGI.pm POD for a bit more info.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • 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.
