I'm trying to get a script working that takes a website in the QUERY_STRING and gets it using LWP, then print the results. Here's what I have, but it doesn't work. It works fine when I run it on my Win32 machine though (with some changes to accomadate the differences). I know it's not secure, and I also know I should be using CGI, but other than that, some help please?
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";
use LWP::UserAgent;
use lib "/pathtomodules";
my $ua = new LWP::UserAgent;
$ENV{QUERY_STRING} =~ s/%([\da-fA-F][\dA-Fa-f])/pack("C", hex($1))/eg;
my $url = $ENV{QUERY_STRING};
my $request = new HTTP::Request $ENV{REQUEST_METHOD} => "$url";
my $response = $ua->request($request);
my $content;
if ($response->is_success) {
    $content = $response->content;
    print $content;
}
