NAME

       HTML::Mason::Utils - Publicly available functions useful outside of Mason

VERSION

       version 1.52

DESCRIPTION

       The functions in this module are useful when you need to interface code you have written
       with Mason.

FUNCTIONS

       data_cache_namespace ($comp_id)
           Given a component id, this method returns its default "Cache::Cache" namespace.  This
           can be useful if you want to access the cached data outside of Mason.

           With a single component root, the component id is just the component path. With
           multiple component roots, the component id is "key"/"path", where "key" is the key
           corresponding to the root that the component falls under.

       cgi_request_args ($cgi, $method)
           This function expects to receive a "CGI.pm" object and the request method (GET, POST,
           etc).  Given these two things, it will return a hash in list context or a hashref in
           scalar context.  The hash(ref) will contain all the arguments passed via the CGI
           request.  The keys will be argument names and the values will be either scalars or
           array references.
