Hi,
There is an inconsistency in the cgi::untaint documentation; it's a
one-word fix. In cgi::untaint, in the section on local extraction
handlers:
When extract() is called CGI::Untaint will also check to see if you have
an is_valid() method also, and if so will run this against the value
extracted from the regular expression (available as $self->value).
In CGI::Untaint::Object, the documentation for $self->value:
This should really have been two methods, but too many other modules
now rely on the fact that this does double duty. As an accessor, this
is the 'raw' value. As a mutator it's the extracted one.
The documentation is correct in C:U:O, but not in C:U. The section in
CGI::Untaint should say:
<snip>...(available as $self->untainted).
Thanks,
Ben Lavender
