CGI::Untaint::Maypole(User Contributed Perl DocumentatCGI::Untaint::Maypole(3)

NAME
       CGI::Untaint::Maypole - Use instead of CGI::Untaint. Based on
       CGI::Untaint

SYNOPSIS
	 use CGI::Untaint::Maypole;
	 my $h = CGI::Untaint::Maypole->new($params);
	 $value = $h->extract(-as_printable => 'name);

	 if ($h->error =~ /No input for/) {
	       # caught empty input now handle it
		       ....
	 }
	 if ($h->raw_data->{$field} eq $object->$field) {
	   # Raw data same as database data. Perhaps we should not update field
	       ...
	 }

DESCRIPTION
       This patches some issues I have with CGI::Untaint. You still need it
       installed and you install handlers the same.

       1) Instead of passing the empty string to the untaint handlers and
       relying on them to handle it to everyone's liking, it seems better to
       have CGI::Untaint just say "No input for field" if the field is blank.

       2) It  adds the method "raw_data" to the get back the parameters the
       handler was created with.

   raw_data
       Returns the parameters the handler was created with as a hashref
