in thread How do I build a web interface for a command-line program?
You will need a form that has, at minimum, two inputs - the query and the email address. You will then need a Perl script that will accept that input (you will want to look at Ovid's CGI beginner course for this) and will call the Perl program with the appropriate input.
To run a website, you will need a webserver. The most common one is Apache, though IIS is often used on Windows. Your systems administrator should be able to help you here.
After that, go as far as you can and come back with specific questions. Good luck, and have fun!
Being right, does not endow the right to be rude; politeness costs nothing.
Being unknowing, is not the same as being stupid.
Expressing a contrary opinion, whether to the individual or the group, is more often a sign of deeper thought than of cantankerous belligerence.
Do not mistake your goals as the only goals; your opinion as the only opinion; your confidence as correctness. Saying you know better is not the same as explaining you know better.
