in reply to New to this... CSS styles are not applied to the HTML within the PERL script. Please help!

The issue is probably the location of your css file: With the script generating the html page running in cgi-bin, the link to your css needs to be:

  1. RELATIVE to the location of cgi-bin...
            or
  2. ABSOLUTE with reference to your web root

PS: Unless FormMail at Matt's archive has been updated, it is rife with vulnerabilities, infelicitious code and the potential for other problems. Use nms (on SourceForge at nms-cgi.sourceforge.net/scripts.shtml) from London Perl Mongers instead.

Sometime idjits hav'ta edit multiple times to get capitalization, punctuation, etc. correct. This is an example.
