my $nick = $cgi->param('nick'); ... my $wpage = $cgi->param('wpage'); my $nick = encode_entities($nick, '<>&"'); ... my $wpage = encode_entities($wpage, '<>&"');
Not to address any security hole but just to simplify and DRY out the code a bit, you might try one of these untested approaches.
Or else (and better IMHO):my ($nick, $pic, $say, $likes, $fav, $car, $age, $town, $drink, $wpage +) = map { encode_entities($cgi->param($_), '<>&"') } qw ( nick pic say likes fav car age town drink wpage +);
use constant CGI_PARAMS => qw( nick pic say likes fav car age town drink wpage ); my %param = map { $_ => encode_entities($_, '<>&"') } map { $cgi->param($_) } CGI_PARAMS ; ... print $fh <<"EOHTML"; <b>$param{'nick'}</b><br> <img src='$param{'pic'}' width='250' height='auto' border='2'><br> <br> Says <b>$param{'say'}</b><br> Likes <b>$param{'likes'}</b><br> Favorite vehicle <b>$param{'fav'}</b><br> Real life car/vehicle <b>$param{'car'}</b><br> Age <b>$param{'age'}</b><br> Hometown <b>$param{'town'}</b><br> Favorite drink <b>$param{'drink'}</b><br> <b><a href='$param{'wpage'}'>$param{'wpage'}</a></b> <HR color=#008000 SIZE=2> EOHTML
