A lot of people seem to have latched onto the "web pages" phrase in your post, but it's not clear to me that you are developing a "distributed" application in a client/server environment. If that is indeed what you are after then a web application is pretty clearly the way to do it. But if you are developing a single user local application then Tk (or one of the other similar GUI tools for Perl) is much more obviously what you want.

It seems to me that the question is not GUI or Web, but more Client/Server or Single user - after that has been answered GUI or Web is much more obvious isn't it?
