This work here without problems

You shouldn't have a content_length > 0 and a request method GET

QUERY_STRING or from stdin, depending on whether or not >CONTENT_LENGTH is
set. (This will be set by the web server depending on whether the request

think double twice :}
what is if anybody uses a non standard request method, like DELETE, MOVE or
even FOO. What should Embperl do then?

Using the content_length header for this decision has proven very well
during the last 4 years. Unless you show more detailed (example code) that
it really not works, I will not change this.

P.S. Please send any future mails to the embperl mailling list. This is the
right place for such a discussion.
