So what does the table look like? Does it have all the values as columns in a single row? (And I hope thae columns are named the same as the variables in the web page). Or does it have a "name of the variable" column and a "value" column?

If the former, something like

my $col="insert into table mytable (";
my $val="values (";
foreach (param()) {
  $col.="$_,";
  $val.="?,";
  push(@arr,param($_)); # Beware! this will break if any variables hav
+e multiple values.
}
$val=~s/,$//;
$col=~s/,$//;
$statement="$col) $val)";
$sth=$dbh->prepare($statement);
$sth->execute(@arr);

If the table is in name/value pairs, then the code is much simpler:

my $sth=$dbh->prepare("insert into table mytable (name,value) values (
+?,?)");
foreach (param()) {
  $sth->execute($_,param($_)); # will only insert the first value if a
+ variable has multiple values
}
