In CGI2.CGI, where are you defining $query? It looks to me as if you cut'n'pasted some code from someone else without a full understanding of what it's doing.
Try either of the following approaches:
#!/usr/local/bin/perl
use CGI qw(:all);
print header;
print "in cgi2.cgi<BR>";
$i = param('i');
print $i;
#!/usr/local/bin/perl
use CGI;
$query = CGI->new;
print $query->header;
print "in cgi2.cgi<BR>";
$i = $query->param('i');
print $i;
Update: $CGI -> CGI in the second code example.
My criteria for good software:
- Does it work?
- Can someone else come in, make a change, and be reasonably certain no bugs were introduced?
-

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).

Want more info? How to link or
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
