Subject: Semicolon should be considered a delimiter
It would be nice if CGI::Lite allowed semicolons as query string delimiters (at the moment only ampersands are used). Here's a "patch": $delimiter = '[&;]'; #Instead of just '&'. Of course, there may be some perfectly good reason the module only uses ampersands, but I can't think of any myself. :-)
Hi, Thanks for your report and suggested fix. Like you, I can't think of a good reason why semicolon delimeters are not presently supported and will look to add this feature in the next release. Pete On Tue Nov 02 08:23:44 2004, guest wrote: Show quoted text

This feature is now present in the 2.03 release. Thanks again for your suggestion, Pete
