Hello All - I have discovered a 'problem' that I am having zero luck overcoming with CalendarScript. Everything works fine unless a user rapidly or repeatedly clicks refresh or any other navigation option. What I see in these cases from Error/Access logs is an ever increasing size of the POST data being sent to the server. When the post size exceeds approx 64kb - the process abends (buffer overflow...).
 The OS is Netware 5.1, Apache 1.37 and Perl 5.8. Like I said - otherwise - the program performs flawlessly - until a user clicks too quickly... I believe it boils down to the namespaces used in perl for the packages and the $QUERY_STRING variable getting clobbered or appended to in this situation from the multiple rapid calls to the script (causing the large POST size I'm seeing).
 I realize not many of you may be familiar with this platform/configuration but any help or advice you may have for isolating the PERL namespaces within the packages (variables) for multiple instances of the program running would be very very much appreciated!

Problem solved! Found a newer version of PERL 5.8 on http://developer.novell.com  and the problem can no longer be duplicated. Excellent - Excellent script!
