Hello Monks...
May i ask for 10nanoseconds of your wisdom, please???
I am having a small problem with CGI::Session and i am stuck... (for 3 days now)
I have an html page (login.html) that asks for user and password. When entered, login.pl checks for them, if they are correct then it creates a sesion and launches web.pl
web.pl checks if the session is valid. if so, then it shows the webpage but if not, it redirects to login.html
The problem is that it seems that the session created by $sesion=new CGI::Session(); is always empty when checked by web.pl . why???
Curiously, if the user enters the process twice (with correct credentials of course) then it works!!!
login.pl:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use warnings;
use CGI;
use CGI::Session;
$cgi=new CGI;
if (CredentialsOK($user,$pwd)){
$sesion=new CGI::Session();
$sesion->param('userlogged',$user);
print $sesion->header(-location=>"web.pl");
$sesion->flush();
}
else {
print $cgi->redirect(-uri=>"login.html");
}
web.pl
#!/usr/bin/perl
use warnings;
use CGI;
use CGI::Session;
use HTML::Template;
$cgi=new CGI;
$sesion=CGI::Session->load($cgi);
$plantilla=HTML::Template->new(filename => 'web.html');
$sesion=CGI::Session->load();
if (($sesion->is_expired) || ($sesion->is_empty)) {
print $cgi->redirect(-uri=>"login.html");
} else {
print $cgi->header();
print $plantilla->output();
}
Thanks to all in advance!!
Pedrete.

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).
