Errors:
Thu Apr 3 06:34:42 2003 tags.pl: Bareword found where operator expected at tags.pl line 16, near ") Td" (error repeats for each TD)

I'm not looking for someone to fix my script for me, just to tell me what I'm doing wrong. This is my first attempt at using tables so if everything is out of whack, it's not just because my brain's on vacation.

Another question I have is why doesn't CGI.pm on cpan cover tables and why are there zero nodes on perlmonks about using tables in CGI? 

print start_form(), table( 
        Tr(Td( "Email Address: ") Td(textfield('usermail')),
        Tr(Td("Author: ")   Td(textfield('author')),
        Tr(Td("Distributor: ") Td(textfield('distributor')),
        Tr(Td("Copyright: "),textfield('copyright')),
        Tr(Td("Abstract: ") Td(textfield('abstract')),
        Tr(Td("Keywords: ") Td(textarea(-name=>'keywords',
                  -rows=>10,
                  -columns=>50)),
        Tr(Td("Description: ") Td(textarea(-name=>'description',
                  -rows=>10,
                  -columns=>50))),
        Tr(Td("Robots: ") Td(popup_menu(-name=>'robots',
               -values=>['','index','noindex','follow','nofollow']))),
        Tr(Td("Distribution: ") Td(popup_menu(-name=>'distribution',
               -values=>['','local','global']))),
        Tr(Td("Language: ") Td(popup_menu(-name=>'language',
               -values=>['','EN','EN-GB','EN-US','ES','ES-ES','FR','IT
+','JA','KO','DE'])));
        Tr(Td("Rating: ") Td(popup_menu(-name=>'rating',
               -values=>['','kids','general','mature','restricted'])))
+,
        Tr(Td()Td(),
        Tr(Td()(Td(submit)),
        ),
        end_form(),
        hr;
