why are you using CGI again?
Stop.
Get the mouse book. Or this one. Yes, they cost some money. Suck it up -- sometimes you gotta pay to play. Alternately, pore over the POD until you know it backwards and forwards.

Your checkboxes should be named box1.. boxn. How does this cause the script to break? These parameters will be available through CGI. .
It is not required to create a cgi object if you're going to use CGI ":standard". Use one or the other.
Your HTML is badly formatted compared to CGI -- if you insist on not using CGI for output (which is fine, if you know why) then remember that html code should be lower case, and all of the attributes should be quoted.
Seeing this : "All HTML tags are supported!" in your web board made my eyes roll in the back of my head. Are you filtering out javascript? what about object tags? there's a lot of maliciousness you're opening yourself up to here. Try allowing a small range of allowed tags rather than any old thing.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post, it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":


  • Posts are HTML formatted. Put <p> </p> tags around your paragraphs. Put <code> </code> tags around your code and data!
  • Titles consisting of a single word are discouraged, and in most cases are disallowed outright.
  • Read Where should I post X? if you're not absolutely sure you're posting in the right place.
  • Please read these before you post! —
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags:
    a, abbr, b, big, blockquote, br, caption, center, col, colgroup, dd, del, details, div, dl, dt, em, font, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, hr, i, ins, li, ol, p, pre, readmore, small, span, spoiler, strike, strong, sub, summary, sup, table, tbody, td, tfoot, th, thead, tr, tt, u, ul, wbr
  • You may need to use entities for some characters, as follows. (Exception: Within code tags, you can put the characters literally.)
            For:     Use:
    & &amp;
    < &lt;
    > &gt;
    [ &#91;
    ] &#93;
