if you are using the CGI module, you have access to any html form
values that you submitted through POST, or that you entered in the
query string.
so if on one page, you had a link (or form action to) /cgi-bin/page2.pl
in page2.pl, you could have:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict; use warnings;
use CGI;
my $user = param('user');
print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";
print "$user<br>\n";
....if on the first page you had:
<input type=text name=username id=username value="">
something like that. the id is optional, but CGI requires that the html
tag have a name attribute.
