CGI::Wrap - buffer output when building CGI programs

SYNOPSIS

Top

	use CGI;
	use CGI::Croak;
	use CGI::Wrap;

	$query = new CGI;
	savequery $query;		# to reconstruct input
	$CGI::Out::mailto = 'fred';	# override default of $<

	run \&myfunc, @myargs		# a function
	run sub { code }		# an inline function
	run 'code'			# something to eval

	sub myfunc {
		out $query->header();
		out $query->start_html(
			-title=>'A test',
			-author=>'muir@idiom.com');
	}
	$CGI::Out::out			# is the buffer

DESCRIPTION

Top

This is a helper routine for building CGI programs. It buffers stdout until you're completed building your output. If you should get an error before you are finished, then it will display a nice error message (in HTML), log the error, and send email about the problem.

To use it, you must condense your program down to a single function call and then use CGI::Wrap::run to call it.

Instead of print, use out.
