Hello again. I'm in the next production stage of this project of mine. I added the feature to search for yes or no to an existing program. there is a large DB file, where, on the first 20 documents, i put in yes or no.
Here is the DB file, and Here is the site as it runs
Here is the code to run it. 
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;

use CGI qw(:standard);

print    header(),
    start_html(-title=>"Street Print CD Catalog", -background=>'/image
+s/catalogbackground.jpg');

print    "<img src=\"/images/StPrintImageLogo.gif\"><br><br>";

if (param()) {
chomp(my $color = param("color"));
chomp(my $pattern = param("pattern"));
chomp(my $cd_number = param("cdnumber"));
chomp(my $highres = param("highres"));
print p(h4('You searched for:'),br(), h5("Color : $color"), h5("Patter
+n : $pattern"), h5("Cd Number : $cd_number"), h5 ("Printable Images :
+ $highres"));
print "<table border=1><tr align=\"center\" valign=\"middle\"><td widt
