HTML::StickyQuery - add sticky QUERY_STRING
use HTML::StickyQuery; # create an object my $s = HTML::StickyQuery->new( regexp => '\.cgi$', abs => 0, keep_original => 1, ); print $s->sticky( file => 'foo.html', param => { SESSIONID => 'xxx' } ); or my $q = CGI->new; print $s->sticky( file => 'foo.html', param => $q, sticky_keys => [qw(SESSIONID)] );
this module is a sub class of HTML::Parser. parse HTML document and add QUERY_STRING to href attributes. Handy for maintaining state without cookie or something, transparently.
if you want to use sticky CGI data via FORM. it is better to use HTML::FillInForm.
constructor of HTML::StickyQuery object. the options are below.
add QUERY_STRING to absolute URI or not. (default: 0)
this option is obsolete. please use keep_original option.
keep original QUERY_STRING or not. (default: 1) when this option is false. all old QUERY_STRING is removed.
regular expression of affected URI. (default: none)
parse HTML and add QUERY_STRING. return HTML document. the options are below.
specify the HTML file.
specify the HTML document as scalarref.
specify the HTML document as arrayref.
QUERY_STRING data. as hashref or object which implements param method. (eg. CGI, Apache::Request)
specify sticky data keys as arrayref. any keys which are not in this list are ignored. if not specified, all keys are kept.
typical example of CGI application using session.
use Apache::Session,HTML::Template and HTML::StickyQuery
template file:
<html> <head> <title>Session Test</title> </head> <body> COUNT: <TMPL_VAR NAME="count"><br> <hr> <a href="session.cgi">countup</a><br> <hr> </body> </html>
session.cgi:
#!perl use strict; use CGI; use HTML::Template; use HTML::StickyQuery; use Apache::Session::DB_File; my %session; my $cgi = CGI->new; # create session. my $id = $cgi->param('SESSIONID'); tie %session,'Apache::Session::DB_File',$id,{ FileName => './session.db', LockDirectory => './lock' }; $session{count} = $session{count} + 1; my $tmpl = HTML::Template->new(filename => './test.html'); $tmpl->param(count => $session{count}); my $output = $tmpl->output; # no COOKIE print $cgi->header; my $stq = HTML::StickyQuery->new; print $stq->sticky( scalarref => \$output, param => { SESSIONID => $session{_session_id} } );
template file (simplified):
<A href="./search.cgi?pagenum=<TMPL_VAR name=nextpage>">Next 20 results</A>
search.cgi:
#!perl use CGI; use HTML::StickyQuery; use HTML::Template; my $query = CGI->new; my $tmpl = HTML::Template->new(filename => 'search.html'); # do searching with $query and put results into $tmpl # ... # set next page offset $tmpl->param(nextpagee => $query->param('pagenum') + 1); my $output = $tmpl->output; my $sticky = HTML::StickyQuery->new(regexp => qr/search\.cgi$/); print $query->header, $sticky->sticky( scalarref => \$output, param => $qyery, sticky_keys => [qw(search)] );
