in reply to What namespace is CGI:ReadParse() using?

Use the fully qualified name of the variable (%main::in) or declare the variable with our %in in your program. (Presumably it's using %main::in. Adjust accordingly otherwise.)

      The bog standard our %in; in main - or if you're using an older Perl, use vars qw(%in);
