My script when tested shows it's error free, and it runs through the web browser without producing any errors as well. However, it doesn't print my $tags to browser and it doesn't send the email. Does anyone see why?

Thanks so much!

my $adminmail = 'venimfrogtongue@earthlink.net';
my $sendmail = '/usr/lib/sendmail';

use strict;
my %form = (
    author       => undef,
    distributor  => undef,
    copyright    => undef,
    keywords     => undef,
    description  => undef,
    distribution => undef,
    robots       => undef,
    language     => undef,
    generator    => undef,
    rating       => undef,
    abstract     => undef,
    usermail     => undef,
    request      => undef,
);

use CGI;

my $query = CGI->new;

print $query->header;

%form = %{$query->Vars};

open(HEADER, "header.txt") or die("Cannot open file: $!\n");
