Answer / suvvari

In the HTML form, you have to mention the perl script name.
Ex: <form action="test.pl" method="POST">. Then in the
test.pl, you have to mention the content-type as
print "content-type: text/html\n\n";. And read the form
values and print them.

Answer / raghav

Including the First two answers also go thru CGI.pm module.
or else you can also use the cgi-lib.pl.
Go through the docs of the modules.

Answer / vipul dalwala

print "content-type: text/html\n\n";.

if ($ENV{’REQUEST_METHOD’} eq ’POST’) {
read(STDIN, $buffer, $ENV{’CONTENT_LENGTH’});
}
else {
$buffer = $ENV{’QUERY_STRING’};
}

@keyvaluepairs = split(/&/, $buffer);

foreach $pair (@keyvaluepairs) {
($name, $value) = split(/=/, $pair);
$value =~ tr/+/ /;
$value =~ s/%([a-fA-F0-9][a-fA-F0-9])/pack("C", hex
($1))/eg;
print $name . "=". $value ."<br>";
}
