Hey, thanks a lot for the help but i still got a bit of problems. On my form i put: 
            <form action="http://TheRoyalKnights.com/cgi-bin/coranto/r
+qguest.cgi">
            <label>Blehhhh</label><input type="text" name="submitedquo
+te" size="40" /><br>
            <input type="hidden" value="index2.shtml" name="redirect">
+<input type="submit" value="submit" />
            </form>

[download]
Then on my Perl file i have: 
#!/usr/bin/perl -wT

use strict;
use CGI;

my $q = new CGI;

my $quote = $q->param("submitedquote");

open FILE, ">>rqhold.dat" or die "Can't open rqhold.dat: $!\n";
print FILE $quote, "\n";
close FILE;

[download]
When i try to access rqguest.cgi i get an internal server error, and it's chmod'ed 755, so it must be an error in the script. What could it be? Thanks for your replies, and thanks in advance. -Xzyon
