$CGI->popup_menu returns a string that you have to print yourself. This seems to work when I run it:

#!/usr/bin/perl -w use CGI; my $CGI = CGI->new(); %OS_APP_NAME = ( 'AA' => 'HP-UX', 'AB' => 'SunOS', 'AD' => 'Linux', 'AJ' => 'Windows 2000', 'AK' => 'Apache', 'AM' => 'IIS', 'AP' => 'VMware', 'AR' => 'Windows 2003', 'E' => 'AIX', 'MC' => 'ControlM', 'QD' => 'DYNIX', 'X' => 'Tandem' ); print $CGI->popup_menu(-name=>'TECH_SPEC_ID', -values=>\%OS_APP_NAME);

If the missing print is not the problem, I don't know what is.
