Hi Andrew,

Thank you for the reply. For the value of token in the url '/reset/:token'
do I first set the value of token with

my $token = get_token(); # subroutine that returns generated token

session username => $token;

so that it matches the urlJiOk49ld9oekdisJkflSS3ed
<http://myapp.com/resetJiOk49ld9oekdisJkflSS3ed> link that was sent to the
user in the email?
