NAME

CGI::UntaintPatched - CGI::Untaint but it returns a "No input for '$field'\n" error for fields left blank on a web form.

SYNOPSIS

  if ($h->error =~ /No input for/) {
    # caught empty input now handle it
  }

  See  CGI::Untaint. 

DESCRIPTION

Instead of passing the empty string to the untaint handlers, which do not like it or updating them all, it seemed better to have CGI::Untaint catch the field left blank exception. So it does. This should be ok I see no point untainting an empty string. But i am open to suggestions and other patches.

BUGS

None known yet.
