Your best bet is to look up and use CGI as quickly as possible. Not only will it accomplish the task you ask for it will give you a whole slew of power to play with in dealing with CGI and HTML forms related issues.

Just type perldoc CGI on your server for info, or you can follow this link to the info about it here in the perlmonks own copy of the docs. Gook luck =)
