       CGI::Extratags - Useful Extensions for the CGI Module

SYNOPSIS

	 use CGI::Extratags;
	 $cgi = new CGI::Extratags;

	 print $cgi -> email ('racke@linuxia.de');

	 print $cgi -> jump ('CONTACT', 'contact us');
	 print $cgi -> mark ('CONTACT', $cgi -> h2 ('How to contact us'));

	 print $cgi -> row ('Date', 18, 1, 1966);
	 print $cgi -> recall ('Debian CD', artnum => '0-123456');

DESCRIPTION

       CGI::Extratags adds several useful methods to the CGI class.

       email ADDRESS
	     print $cgi -> email ('racke@linuxia.de');

	   Produces HTML code for a link to an email ADDRESS.

       jump MARK TEXT
	     print $cgi -> jump ('CONTACT', 'contact us');

	   Produces HTML code for a link pointing to a target within the current document.

       mark NAME TEXT
	     print $cgi -> mark ('CONTACT', $cgi -> h2 ('How to contact us'));

	   Generates target NAME for hyperlinks.

       row [ITEM ...]
	     print $cgi -> row ('Date', 18, 1, 1966);

	   Produces HTML code for a table row with ITEM arguments as cell contents.

       recall TEXT [NAME [VALUE]] ...
	     foreach my $num (sort (keys %artmap))
	       {
		   print $cgi -> recall ($artmap{$num}, artnum => $num);
		   print $cgi -> br;

NAME

       AppConfig::CGI - Perl5 module for processing CGI script parameters.

SYNOPSIS

	   use AppConfig::CGI;

	   my $state = AppConfig::State->new(\%cfg);
	   my $cgi   = AppConfig::CGI->new($state);

	   $cgi->parse($cgi_query);
	   $cgi->parse();		# looks for CGI query in environment

OVERVIEW

       AppConfig::CGI is a Perl5 module which implements a CGI interface to AppConfig.	It examines the QUERY_STRING environment variable, or a
       string passed explicitly by parameter, which represents the additional parameters passed to a CGI query.  This is then used to update
       variable values in an AppConfig::State object accordingly.

       AppConfig::CGI is distributed as part of the AppConfig bundle.

DESCRIPTION

   USING THE AppConfig::CGI MODULE
       To import and use the AppConfig::CGI module the following line should appear in your Perl script:

	   use AppConfig::CGI;

       AppConfig::CGI is used automatically if you use the AppConfig module and create an AppConfig::CGI object through the cgi() method.
       AppConfig::CGI is implemented using object-oriented methods.  A new AppConfig::CGI object is created and initialised using the new()
       method.	This returns a reference to a new AppConfig::CGI object.  A reference to an AppConfig::State object should be passed in as the
       first parameter:

	   my $state = AppConfig::State->new();
	   my $cgi   = AppConfig::CGI->new($state);

       This will create and return a reference to a new AppConfig::CGI object.

   PARSING CGI QUERIES
       The "parse()" method is used to parse a CGI query which can be specified explicitly, or is automatically extracted from the "QUERY_STRING"
       CGI environment variable.  This currently limits the module to only supporting the GET method.

       See AppConfig for information about using the AppConfig::CGI module via the cgi() method.
