Unless I missed something, our post doesn't imply that that form Must* be programmatically gnerated. You could simply serve up the HTML via a template like so:
use Template;
use CGI qw/:standard -debug/;
# Present form for data entry
my $template = Template->new();
my $vars = ""; # no vars in this template
print header;
$template->process("my-Template-filename.tmpl", $vars)
|| &error( "Template process failed: ",
$template->error() );
# my predefined error function
Processing the form when submited is covered by the post by saintbrie.

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).
