#!/usr/bin/perl -wT

use strict;
use CGI;

my $q = new CGI;

my $quote = $q->param("submitedquote");

open FILE, ">>rqhold.dat" or die "Can't open rqhold.dat: $!\n";
print FILE $quote, "\n";
close FILE;

Without seeing the error output I can only think that its because you are using taint but are not then untainting the variables you read in. ie:

 # This var is not untainted
 my $quote = $q->param("submitedquote");

I'd also read Ovids tutorial. for more hints on CGI stuff.

Its also possible that you cannot open the file and your die statement has informed you of that. Take a look at your logs for more info.

You aren't outputting any headers - you either need to do so or send a response indicating that you aren't going to do so.

Update: see A CGI Program must make some output for more details
