Re: cookie problem (cgi101)

This is how you write that stuff ( both home.pl and wel.pl ), you print from Main, your ThisPage() or ThatPage() returns $headers, $body

#!/usr/bin/perlml --

use strict;

use CGI ();
use CGI::Carp qw( fatalsToBrowser );

Main( @ARGV );
exit( 0 );

sub Main {
    my $q = CGI->new;
    return print GoToWellWithCookies( $q );
} ## end sub Main

sub UrlFor {
    my( $q, $path ) = @_;
    return $path;
} ## end sub UrlFor

sub ValidLogin {
    my( $q ) = @_;
    my $user = $q->param( 'login' );
    my $pass = $q->param( 'pass' );
## YOUR JOB :)
    return !!1 if $user eq $pass;
    return !!0;
} ## end sub ValidLogin

## sub TryAndLoginToGoHome 
## accepts $query
## returns $headers, $body;
## 
sub GoToWellWithCookies {
    my( $q ) = @_;
    if( my $user = ValidLogin( $q ) ) {
        my $cookie = $q->cookie(
            -name    => 'id',
            -value   => $user,
            -expires => '+2m',
            -path    => '/',
        );
        return $cg->redirect(
            -location => UrlFor( $q, "wel.pl" ),
            -cookie   => $cookie,
        );
    } else {
        ;

Its an example of how you should write your programs so that cookies work for you (Main prints, ThisPage or ThatPage return $headers, $body, which Main prints)

Its an example based on code you posted for home.pl

You should fix it up and write the same way for wel.pl
