NAME

CGI::Untaint::boolean - untaint boolean values from CGI programs

SYNOPSIS

use CGI::Untaint;

my $handler = CGI::Untaint->new( $q->Vars() );
my $boolean = $handler->extract( -as_boolean => 'some_feature' );

DESCRIPTION

This input handler verifies that it is dealing with a reasonable boolean value, probably from a checkbox with no value specified. In this case, "reasonable" means that the value is on, if the checkbox is checked, or empty, if the client did not send a value.
