Here is my dilemma. Im programming a system with multiple modules to help break up my code. Im access my modules through the "use" statement. My Modules, however has no access to the form data from the CGI Module 
package development;

use strict;
use warnings;
use CGI;

my $forms = new CGI;

print $forms->param("elementName");

The above code does absolutely nothing inside the module itself. It seems that my modules have no access to form data . If I try to do this

Main Script 
use strict;
use warnings;
use CGI;

my $forms = new CGI;

[download]
Module 
use strict;
use warnings;

$main::forms->param("formElement");

[download]
This does nothing either. So thats my dilemma. How do I get my modules to beable to access GET and POST information. Thanks!
