i made a really simple weblog (all i need to do is design it) but i have a problem with hebrew charecters and charecters like ! or @ or % - all of that... that make them a number with %, for example, ! = %21. my code is: 
#! /usr/bin/perl

$in;

if ($ENV{'REQUEST_METHOD'} eq "get") {

$in = $ENV{'QUERY_STRING'};
} else {

$in = <STDIN>;
}

$in =~ s/\+/ /g;

@detail = split (/&/, $in);

print "Content-Type: text/html\n\n";
print "<html><body>Post has succsesfully submited";
 

foreach $details(@detail)
{
    %details = split (/=/, $details);

    while (($name, $value) = each %details)
    {

        print "<br>\n";
        $entry .= $value . "#";
    }
}

print "click <a href=view.cgi>here</a> to view your post</body></html>
+";

$entry = $entry."\n";

open (GBOOK, ">> guestbook.txt");
print GBOOK "$entry";
close (GBOOK);

that was the submit code (the "print"s are transleted to english) the view code is: 
#! /usr/bin/perl

open (GBOOK, "guestbook.txt");
@entries = <GBOOK>;
close (GBOOK);

print "Content-Type: text/html\n\n";
print "<html><body>";

foreach $entry(@entries)
{
    @singles = split (/#/, $entry);

    print "$singles[0]\n";
    print "<BR><BR>\n";
}

print "</body></html>";
