in thread passing an array to a checkbox_group

I presume you mean this....
print $query->param( -name=>'TblMenu', -value=>$STable);
I tried that but it did not work?

    Ok, I (now really having read the code) presume, that you
    simply want to set the CGI-variable, don't you?
    In this case, perldoc CGI tells:

    the param() routine is used to set a CGI parameter
    [..]
    $q->param(-name=>'veggie',-value=>'tomato');


    where $q is determined by the previously stated
    $q = new CGI; # create new CGI object

    So, your statement seems perfectly right. The only clue
    is, that you "call it from another Perl script". In this
    case you have to export/import variables, haven't you?
    If so, wait for another PerlMonk to answer this, because
    I am not experienced with exchanging variables between
    perlscipts.
