Can anyone tell me what I need to do for this to work based on the two examples above?

Learn some Perl perhaps? Link is to PHP which is a different language.

Have a look a Ovids tutorial Web Programming With Perl for a quick start. This snippet will dump all the form fields for you to the browser, in param tab value format.

#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use CGI;
my $q = new CGI;
print $q->header();
print '<pre>';
print "$_\t" . $q->escapeHTML($q->param($_)) . "\n" for $q->param();
print '</pre>';
