This works for me:
package Foo;
use strict;
use vars '$AUTOLOAD';
AUTOLOAD {
(my $meth = $AUTOLOAD) =~ s/.*:://;
if ($meth =~ /\A[A-Z]+\z/) { goto &{ $SUPER::{$meth} } }

This is what I suggest:
sub trim {
@_ = $_ if not @_ and defined wantarray;
@_ = @_ if defined wantarray;
for (@_ ? @_ : $_) { s/^\s+//, s/\s+$// }
return wantarray ? @_ : $_[0] if defined wantarray;
}
The @_ = @_ gets rid of the magical binding between $_[$X] and the actual
arguments. I like the shortness and simplicitly of my code.

Munging the URL in some way (like adding query strings) does work.
The problem is, it is even worse than cookies from a privacy
standpoint. Think about the referrer header when pulling an ad or
following a link to another site.
Apache has a module for doing URI manipulation, I believe. IIS has a
filter available for doing the same thing.
Personally, I think non-persistent cookies are a better way to go (no
expiration on the cookie means no store on disk).
The entire cookie controversy, which has nothing to do with Perl, is
totally over rated anyway. Fiddling with the URI will do the same
thing as cookies but with less privacy. Cookies only get sent to the
server that sets them. Referrer headers get sent anywhere unless a
proxy filters them out.

CGI::Persistent extends CGI to do this transparently. From manpage:
"...introduces persistent CGI sessions that store their state data on the
server side. When a new session starts, CGI::Persistent automatically
generates a unique state identification string and associates it with a
persistent object on the server. The identification string is used in URLs
or forms to refer to the particular session. Request attributes are
transparently committed to the associated object and the object data is
bound to the query.
CGI::Persistent is derived from CGI.pm. CGI.pm methods have been overridden
as appropriate."
best,

Subject: cookies blocked by "location"?
Message-Id: <39e7971e.38800479@news.knology.net>
I am part of an affiliate system for tracking sales. They use
cookies. (BTW what percent of visitors are not using cookies?)
Could statements such as:
print "Location:
http://blah-blah.com/cgi-bin/redirect.cgi?item_for_sale=book1\n\n";
cause the cookie to not be recorded? The online docs say use \015\012
in place of \n for better compatability.
The problem has been that I wrote the redirect program, saw that it
did indeed redirect me to the proper items for sale, and that it did
indeed cause their counter to increase by one for each visit, but that
my sales dropped from 2% of the clicks to 1%, indicating that their
"click-thru" counter recorded the visit, but that the subsequent
cookie for tracking a possible sale was not accepted. But they also
made changes to their syatem at the same time I made the redicrect.cgi
change, so it's possible that the decrease in sales was their fault.
If my speculation is correct, that's a pretty nasty "gotcha". For
example, it could mean someone out there is making $10,000 per year on
an affiliate system when it should be $20,000.

You'd do something like:

qw(word_list.txt);

Subject: Multiple fork()s?
Message-Id: <7cNF5.1172$_o5.4496@typhoon.san.rr.com>
I've exhaustedly searched the Net looking for some basic code to
handle multiple forks in Perl to no success. The following code snippet
I put together doesn't work as I want it to:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
print "parent - pid $$\n";
foreach my $i (1..3) {
my $pid;
defined($pid = fork) || die "unable to fork: $!\n";
if (!$pid) {
print "child $i - pid $pid\n";
} else {
wait;
}
}
It outputs:
$ ./test_fork
parent - pid 991
child 1 - pid 0
child 2 - pid 0
child 3 - pid 0
child 3 - pid 0
child 2 - pid 0
child 3 - pid 0
child 3 - pid 0
Indicating that the children of the children are evaluating the print() as
well, which is not want I want. I'd like the output (indicating that the
children are only forking additional children, with everyone outputing one
print() statement):
$ ./test_fork
parent - pid 991
child 1 - pid 0
child 2 - pid 0
child 3 - pid 0
I know it's something simple.. :-/

Careful. This does a numerical test on the entry. Use 'eq' or "ne'

If you don't mind ignoring the empty string as well, you might just as

A cartoon style camel eating a python.
Mildly amusing, but not worth the trouble.

I believe you can set break points. Even conditional breakpoints.
Then again, I believe a lot of things.

Hi there!
I'm a really Perl-newbie. Perhaps you can answer my stupid question:
I have got a textfile that incluedes 7 lines of text. The variable $text
should just include the 4th line of my textfile.
Please help me!

Hello,
I currently use perl 5.005-02 for our application running on
Solaris 2.6 machine. We are planning to port the application to
Solaris 7. Which version is compatible for Solaris 7. Do you have
different versions for Solaris 7, 64 bit and 32 bit architecture ? If
so
please specify those details aswell.
Regards,
Manoj

Hi!
I'm looking for a regex for matching regular expressions.
For example, given the string:
$a= "\"Gont \@ Fernando Ariel", <fernando\@hey.com>,
someone\@somewhere.com";
It should only match "fernando\@hey.com" and "someone@@somewhere.com"
Kind regards,

Hi
Congratulations! I think you found a combination of characters, which
does not mean anything in perl. Maybe we can use it for something in the
next Version.

Message-Id: <null>
Administrivia:
The Perl-Users Digest is a retransmission of the USENET newsgroup
comp.lang.perl.misc. For subscription or unsubscription requests, send
the single line:
subscribe perl-users
or:
unsubscribe perl-users
to almanac@ruby.oce.orst.edu.
| NOTE: The mail to news gateway, and thus the ability to submit articles
| through this service to the newsgroup, has been removed. I do not have
| time to individually vet each article to make sure that someone isn't
| abusing the service, and I no longer have any desire to waste my time
| dealing with the campus admins when some fool complains to them about an
| article that has come through the gateway instead of complaining
| to the source.
To submit articles to comp.lang.perl.announce, send your article to
clpa@perl.com.
To request back copies (available for a week or so), send your request
to almanac@ruby.oce.orst.edu with the command "send perl-users x.y",
where x is the volume number and y is the issue number.
For other requests pertaining to the digest, send mail to
perl-users-request@ruby.oce.orst.edu. Do not waste your time or mine
sending perl questions to the -request address, I don't have time to
answer them even if I did know the answer.
