Subject: Undefined $labelattributes causing uninitialized value errors in httpd log
Date: Fri, 9 Dec 2011 11:15:12 -0500
To: <bug-CGI.pm [...] rt.cpan.org>
From: "Welter, Jason" <jason.welter [...] tqs.com>
Adding a checkbox or *_box_group element to a form without passing in -labelattributes will cause an uninitialized value in concatenation error in the httpd error log: "Use of uninitialized value $_ in concatenation (.) or string at (eval 58) line 23." I don't know if this is the correct approach but adding this line to CGI.pm sub checkbox and _box_group After the rearrange function fixed it: $labelattributes = defined $labelattributes ? $labelattributes : {}; I'm using CGI version 3.58 but I think the bug exists across all versions.
This issue has been copied to: https://github.com/leejo/CGI.pm/issues/93 please take all future correspondence there. This ticket will remain open but please do not reply here. This ticket will be closed when the github issue is dealt with.
Rejecting. I'm not accepting any feature requests, patches, or updates to the HTML generating functions of CGI.pm unless they are of a critical nature (i.e. fixing fundamentally broken HTML output).
