... whaat?
It's slightly impossible to answer your question without seeing at least some of the implementation details, which we can't. Can you show us some of your code?
To give a vague answer, though, the answer would be, when you retrieve the changes, show the new data, comparing as you go along with the old data, and highlight (with, presumably, HTML tags, as you seem to be implying that you're using CGI) whatever has changed, then store the new data over top of the old data. Practically everything else is implementation-specific.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
