Thanks for your kind response. Those other responses just make me feel horrible because I know how hard I work to figure things out on my own, and then I essentially get people calling me stupid because I can't figure it out from the document. I'm sure you're familiar with the acronym 'RTFM'... I did, I promise!! I appreciated your link to CGI.pm on CPAN. It's got lots of information that I can use to clean up my code.
