Hi there. No offense, but your code is broken. You should be using the CGI.pm module. I detail the reasons at lesson 2 of my CGI course. As for your comments about HTML::TokeParser::Simple, since I'm the author of that module, I can guarantee you that this module is not required by CGI.pm, so if running that script results in a "Can't locate HTML::TokeParser::Simple in @INC" error, then you have something seriously wrong with your system. Try running the script from the command line with this:

Since you're not passing in any parameters, it probably won't work, but if you don't see the HTML::TokeParser::Simple error, then the error is not being generated by your code, but probably by something in your Web server configuration.
