    my $webparams;
   
    if ($ENV{'QUERY_STRING'} ne '')
    {
        $webparams = "$ENV{'QUERY_STRING'}";
    }
    else
    {
        read(STDIN, $webparams, $ENV{'CONTENT_LENGTH'});

Also, I would suggest that you get a copy of "Programming Perl" (the camel book) from O'Reilly. This is a must read for any serious perl programmer. There are many other books that will help but the camel book is the best way to start in my opinion.
