Finally you have to store the data across different calls of the CGI script, you can do that either in a file (see perlopentut), or if you want more flexibility, in a database using DBI.

It might also be valuable to a perl newbee to read How do I post a question effectively? and the Monastery's PerlMonks FAQ.

In short, welcome to the Monastery.... and to its many resources, which include, as does the above, both on-site and off-site wisdom.

If you're just looking for the most simple feedback, this is what I often do. For situations where I am just throwing a quick feedback form up or something and don't need to parse/reuse the data, I like this shortcut.

use strict;
use warnings;
use CGI qw(:standard);

print
    header(),
    start_html(),
    start_form(),
    textfield("one"),
    br(),
    checkbox_group(-name => "list",
                   -values => [qw(me mi mo mu)]),
    br(),
    textarea("text"),
    br(),
    submit(),
    end_form(),
    CGI::Dump(), # <-- Right here
    end_html();
