I have been through the Dancer documentation and have searched the net as well. Yet, I do not come across a document that explains Dancer in complete details or something that written for folks who know basic Perl.

What did you find and read, and what was missing from each?

I think http://perldancer.org/ is what you're looking for, but if its not, I'd like to know why :)

I think you should start by watching the video to learn about the internet / Re: How to display output in separate html form in cgi script / Re: HTML Form not workin (cgi-bin is not for html, its for cgis)

After that learning dancer is trivial :) because Dancer and CGI are just ways for computer programs to speak internet, you should learn about the internet :)

Re: How does Dancer handle forms? How do other such frameworks do it?
