Summary of Problem: Your HTML form has some errors in it.

I changed your single quotes to double quotes (do not know if that is necessary) and fixed the error where you use the TYPE keyword twice in the same INPUT tag: 

<input type='button' type='submit' value='Save'/>

Changed it to: 
<input type="submit" name="button" value="Save">

[download]
And then I got the following output: 
Parameter count: 2 
    'signoff' => 'review' 
    'button' => 'Save'

From this script: 

#!/user/bin/perl

use strict;


use CGI;

&httpHeader();
&weblog();
&httpFooter();

exit;


sub httpHeader
{
    print "Content-Type: text/html\n\n";
    print "<HTML>\n";
    print "<TITLE>Parameter Confirmation</TITLE>\n";
    print "<BODY>\n";
}

sub httpFooter
{
    print "</BODY>\n";
    print "</HTML>\n";
}

sub weblog
{
    my $cgihan = CGI::new();
    my @frmprm = $cgihan->param;
    my $prmcnt = @frmprm;


    #-----------------------------------------
    # Debugging aid
    #-----------------------------------------
    print "<P>Parameter count:  $prmcnt\n";
    foreach my $frmprm (@frmprm)
    {
        my $prmval = $cgihan->param($frmprm);
        print "<BR>\&nbsp;\&nbsp;\&nbsp;\&nbsp;'$frmprm' => '$prmval'\
+n";
    }
    #-----------------------------------------

    print "</P>\n";

    return;
}
