CGI::XML - Perl extension for converting CGI.pm variables to/from XML

Description

       The CGI::XML module converts CGI.pm variables to XML and vice versa.

       CGI::XML is a subclass of CGI.pm, so it reads the CGI variables just as CGI.pm would.

Methods

       $q = new CGI::XML
           creates a new instance of CGI::XML. You also have access to all of the methods in CGI.pm.

       $q->toXML([$root])
           where  $root  is  an  optional  parameter that specifies the root element. By default, toXML will not
           return a root element.

       $q->toCGI($xml)
           where $xml is the XML you would like to  convert  to  CGI.pm  parameters.  Values  in  the  XML  will
           overwrite any existing values if they exist.

Name

       CGI::XML - Perl extension for converting CGI.pm variables to/from XML

Note

CGI::XML  does  not  currently handle multiple selections passed from HTML forms. This will be added in a
       future release.
