package CGI::Untaint::printable; use strict; use base 'CGI::Untaint::object'; sub _untaint_re { qr/^([\040-\377\r\n\t]*)$/; } =head1 NAME CGI::Untaint::printable - validate as a printable value =head1 SYNOPSIS my $name = $handler->extract(-as_printable => 'name'); =head1 DESCRIPTION This Input Handler verifies that it is dealing with an 'printable' string i.e. characters in the range \040-\377 (plus \r and \n). The empty string is taken to be printable. This is occasionally a useful 'fallback' pattern, but in general you will want to write your own patterns to be stricter. =cut 1;
