Hi Yuval,

Once again, I owe you a big thanks for your excellent assistance.  It took a
little tinkering, but I eventually got it.  I wasn't paying close enough
attention to the "Synopsis Example" where it embeds all the AsCGI stuff
inside a block, causing the environment to be restored before the while loop
at the bottom.  In my case, I added a call to $c->restore() and it did the
trick.

Take care,
H
