Hi all, I'm new to perl, have a project for school to do (with perl, cgi and iptables :) and runnig out of time. I began writing it and immediately ran into problems. This is the script: 
if ($ENV{'REQUEST_METHOD'} eq "GET") {
        $in = $ENV{'QUERY_STRING'};
} else {
        $in = <STDIN>;
}

@podatki = split (/&/, $in);

foreach my $slot (@podatki)
        {
         %uporabnik = split (/=/,$slot);
}

It's very basic, but @podatki and %uporabnik stay empty and I don't know why. I've followed instructions. $in contains something like this: "ime=Janez&vzdevek=Yanezh&Submit=Moving+on" when the script is called. Any ideas about solving this are wellcomed :)
