Can anyone tell me what is wrong with this. I have been working on this for hours. I have posted the majority of the script here. It is pretty simple but I'm having a hard time with the array in the return_html sub function. Please help.

#!/usr/local/bin/perl -w
#BurgerDog CGI script/HTML

use CGI qw(:standard);

#\\Declares global varibles and global arrays
#
$here = param("location");
$name = param("name");
$email = param("email");
$cost = 0;
@food = ('', 'plain dog', 'cheese dog', 'big dog');
@fries = ('', 'yes', 'no');
@onionrings = ('', 'no', 'yes');
@drink = ('', 'pepsi', 'coke');
#
#\\Start of the HTML page
#
print header(), start_html("BurgerDog Resturant"), h1("BurgerDog Order
+ Form");

if (param())
{
    return_html();    
    dborder();
    cost();
    mailout();    

}else{
    first_page();    
}


sub first_page    #\\Sets up the default html page with blank fields.
{
    print hr();
    print start_form();
    print p("Location: ", textfield("location"));
    print p("Name: ", textfield("name"));
    print p("Email: ", textfield("email"));
    print p("What type of BurgerDog would you like? ", popup_menu('foo
+d', \@food));
    print p("Would you like fries with that? ", popup_menu('Fries', \@
+fries));
    print p("Would you like Onion Rings? ", popup_menu('OnionRings', \
+@onionrings));
    print p("Would you like a drink? ", popup_menu('drink', \@drink));
    print p(submit("Submit Order"), reset("Clear Order"));
    print end_form(), print hr();
}

sub return_html        #\\Returns a static html page with variable&arr
+ay information.
{
    print hr(), start_html();
    print p("$name, you placed an order from $here.\n");
    print p("And you would like a $food[$index].\n");
    print p("$fries, french fries?\n");
    print p("$onionrings, onion rings?\n");
    print p("A $drink would be nice with that, Thanks!");
    print p("Your total is \$$cost\n");
    print p("You can be contacted at $email.");
    print hr(), end_html();
}
