in reply to script working locally, but not on server

Usually when a cgi program works locally, but not on the server, its a permissions problem. However in your case (if I'm interpreting your problem correctly), is that "../../../../cgi-bin/clotdecisions.cgi" method="POST"> isn't there on your server. Try putting the "absolute path" top the cgi script, like: "http://myserver.com/cgi-bin/clotdecisions.cgi method="POST"

Or post more information, like any error messages in your weblogs. You can also get useful debugging info by putting this in your script:

use CGI::Carp qw(fatalsToBrower);
Which may print the error out to your browser. (Do not run in production, use only for debugging).
