in reply to Can't get CGI.pm to work

One of the great things about cgi.pm is that all the code remains the same whether you use get, post or something else small example Let's say you have a form with the fields name and email and you inlcuded some info in the link like this http://somewhere.com/index.pl?unique_id=1092384
to get name, email and unique id into vars you could use something like this.
#!/usr/bin/perl -w use CGI; my $q = new CGI; my $name = $q->param( "name" ); my $email = $q->param( "email" ); my $unique_id = $q->param( "unique_id" );
just name the thing inside the ( " " ) the same as the name of the field you want to get, that all for today!
