in reply to Problem reading the value of <$client>

You might find HTTP::Daemon easier to use.

No errors leap out at me. Try telnet localhost 8080 and type a few lines. If you see it, there's a client problem.

On second thought, did you redefine $/ anywhere?

    I've tried using telnet. It seems to connect fine but as soon as I type a character, I lose connection to the host. Like I said my knowledge of Perl is minimal, but shouldn't I be able to 'print <$client>' to see what the value of <$client> is. At this point in the code, the server is waiting for a command from the browser. I am assuming that <$client> should be the GET command from the browser.
