Thank you, man. That did the trick! I did not know cgi.pm can process elements from the command line.

I'm aware that one can use print to debug. However, since the root cause of this problem was my spaghetti code, "print" would have never worked in this particular case. Debug was the right tool for this job and I found the problem with it. Thanks again.

    If the root cause of the problem was spaghetti code, then the root solution must be to learn to write better code...

    UPDATE
    The Monastery is full of good resources for improving. :-)
