After reading the previous thread I think what you're asking for is complete code to show you how to dynamically insert results of html forms into a database. Assuming this is the case, here is a simple (untested!) script which does this:

#!/usr/bin/perl -wT
use strict;
use DBI;
use CGI;

my $cgi = CGI->new();          
print $cgi->header(),       # Print header etc.
      $cgi->start_html();


if($cgi->param()) {    # something was submitted
     my $name =    $cgi->param("name") || "Anonymous";
     my $message = $cgi->param("message") || "";

     if($message)  {   # If they submitted some message

          # Make a connection to the database.
          my $dbh = DBI->connect("DBI:mysql:host=localhost;database=my
+_db",
                    "my_id", "my_pass",
                    {AutoCommit => 1,   # commit immediately
                     PrintError => 0,   
                     RaiseError => 1
                     ShowErrorStatement => 1
                    }
          );

          # Prepare the SQL so we can then use it to insert
          # into the database.  Notice that we use ?s instead
          # of actual values.  This means that we can get
          # DBI to do our actual quoting and saves us a lot
          # of bother.
          my $sth = $dbh->prepare("INSERT INTO guestbook  
                    (name, message, date) VALUES (?,?,?)");

          # Now we execute the SQL.  We pass in one value
          # for each question mark that we put into the 
          # prepare statement up there.  DBI will make sure
          # that our values are properly escaped.
          $sth->execute($name, $message, scalar(localtime(time)));

          # This entry has now been added to the database.
          # Since we (probably) don't need the database 
          # handle anymore, we tidy up by disconnecting.
          $dbh->disconnect();

          # Print something for the user to see.
          print "Thankyou for your addition to the guestbook.";

     }
     print "I think you forgot to add a message";
}

print_guestbook();     # You'll have to fill this one out.
print_addtoguestbook();# You'll have to fill this one out too.

print $cgi->end_html;

I whole-heartedly agree with davorg's advice that you replace your original script with the drop in replacement from nms. This code is free, well written and more secure than Matt's scripts. It is probably easier to improve in the manner you're trying than Matt's scripts will be, too.

Anyway, I hope this now makes sense to you.
