Ok, Perl gurus. I bet the answer to this question is very simple however I'm beating my head on the monitor cause I can't find the answer.

I m working on a basic submit form for my page, where users fill out textfields and i carry the variables to the other page, they have a few more questions and proceed to the next step. Then I have a confirmation page with all the varibales printed out on it. Now, I want to have <a href> link next every varibale saying EDIT and give them ability to change it before sumbitting the form. The question is how do i assign a value to the varibale in HTML link?? basicaly the page would look like that:
Company Name :[company] Edit Contact Name: [contact] Edit Whatever: [whatever] Edit

So , let's say I want to change the value of [company]. I need to click on Edit next to it, and have it do something like that [edit]=[company], and then open a page having [edit] in the textfield so they can change the value of it. And then after clicking on Submit return to the previous page and reasign the value so [[company]=[edit]
I hope it explains what im looking for. Thank you.
