Perl CGI.pm

my box is FreeBSD4.3 and I use Perl 5.0005_03.
Here is the CGI script.

test.cgi
......
if ($query->action eq 'detail') {
......
print $query->hidden('action', 'modify');
......
}

I found that the result of
test.cgi?action=detail
is not what I expected.

the script does not generate <INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="action" VALUE="modify">
it generates INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="action" VALUE="detail">
Can anyone tell me whether this is a bug in CGI.pm or I did not use it correctly.
thanks in advance.
-Tony

HOBBITCGI.CFG(5)						File Formats Manual						  HOBBITCGI.CFG(5)

NAME
hobbitcgi.cfg - Command-line parameters for the Xymon CGI tools SYNOPSIS
$BBHOME/etc/hobbitcgi.cfg DESCRIPTION
hobbitcgi.cfg(1) controls the commandline options passed to all of the Xymon CGI tools through their respective shell-script wrappers. Typ- ically the options listed here are used for system-wide configuration of the CGI utilities, e.g. to define where they read configuration files. The exact set of commandline options available are described in the man-page for each of the CGI utilities. The file is "sourced" into the shell script wrapper, so assignments to the CGI-specific variables must follow standard shell-script syntax. SETTINGS
CGI_ACKINFO_OPTS Options for the hobbit-ackinfo.cgi(1) utility. CGI_ACK_OPTS Options for the bb-ack.cgi(1) utility. CGI_CSVINFO_OPTS Options for the bb-csvinfo.cgi(1) utility.

CGI_FINDHOST_OPTS Options for the bb-findhost.cgi(1) utility. CGI_HIST_OPTS Options for the bb-hist.cgi(1) utility. CGI_HOBBITCOLUMN_OPTS Xymon-specific options for column documentation. This uses the bb-csvinfo.cgi(1) utility with the server/etc/columndoc.cfg configu- ration file. CGI_HOBBITCONFREPORT_OPTS Options for the hobbit-confreport.cgi(1) utility. CGI_HOBBITGRAPH_OPTS Options for the hobbitgraph.cgi(1) utility. CGI_HOSTGRAPHS_OPTS Options for the hobbit-hostgraphs.cgi(1) utility. CGI_NKEDIT_OPTS Options for the hobbit-nkedit.cgi(1) utility. CGI_NKVIEW_OPTS Options for the hobbit-nkview.cgi(1) utility. CGI_REPLOG_OPTS Options for the bb-replog.cgi(1) utility. CGI_REP_OPTS Options for the bb-rep.cgi(1) utility.
