Hey,

(1) use their logging/debug method call &
(2) how to run it from command level.

If perldoc CGI::Request or perldoc CGI::Base
doesnt tell you anything the only place left
is the source code of each.

Thanks!

We can really use a better man page. Without an
adequateman page, the ideal behind OOB is totlly
wasted.

Is there any mailing list out there addressing issues
or question about CGI (& all the drived modules).

Thanks again
Mike

The module CGI::Base isn't available on CPAN.

Either the module has not yet been uploaded to CPAN, or it is
temporary unavailable. Please contact the author to find out
more about the status. Try 'i CGI::Base'.

Now I am curious!

IIRC any module that ends with PLUS
is a CPANPlus Only module

You need CPANPlus to install it.

Is the OP referencing?:

http://search.cpan.org/~mrjc/cvswebedit-v2.0b1/

There appear to be two modules there, but they are ancient and
originally from Tim Bunce.  I suspect he would suggest to use CGI.pm.
They appear to just handle the standard CGI.pm stuff.

There is a beginners-cgi@perl.org list for CGI specific questions.
