Subject: bug in start_form
CGI.pm 3.10, Perl 5.8.7, Win2K-SP4. Line 1802 in CGI.pm has a typo (two indeed), I think: if (defined($param[0]) && substr($param[0],0,1) eq '-') { What we want is this: if (defined($p[0]) && substr($p[0],0,1) eq '-') { At least, with this change in place the generated HTML form is valid XHTML whereas before there are two enctype attributes inside the form tag.

Thanks for the report. In reviewing CGI.pm 3.43, I'm just confirming that your fix was integrated some time ago, so this bug report can be considered resolved. Mark
