That makes sense. Since cgi & values are usually the same I guess I
got into the habit of assuming that they were merely alternative
references to the same variable. I tend to use [values ...] a lot and
stuck with it in my usertags.

Like I said, I don't have time to devote to this issue right now. I
quickly re-installed the Interpolate.pm and took out all of the
$::Value stuff from my usertags. My slippage problem returned. As
soon as I get a chance I'll try to setup an example that reliably
shows the misbehavior with stock Minivend and get back to you.
