Sessions will work, but if you have no other need for session data
then they're a pretty heavy solution.  An easier alternative is to
just encode the data.  For example:

  use MIME::Base64;
  use Storable;

  # in mode2, encode the data
  $template->param(data => encode_bas64(freeze(\%hash)));

  # in mode3, decode the data
  $hash_ref = thaw(decode_base64($q->param('data')));
