For heaven's sake take more care about the way you're asking your questions. You are making it very hard for people to help you, and people will get tired of trying to do so very quickly. My advice: read the posting guidelines for this group and follow them; they really are intended to help you get the help you want.

<form method="post" action="/cgi-bin/add_posting.pl" name="add_posting">
....
<input type="hidden" name="site_id" value="79">
<input type="hidden" name="posting_id" value="">

This is HTML, so I'm assuming you've got it into your Perl program somehow. Best show us how.

I have tried form(1);

You "tried" it; just how did you try it? I just tried it in a one-line Perl program and got the message "Undefined subroutine &main::form" (of course), so you must have done some other coding. Show us.

Hint (based on the posting guidelines): write a small program - ten lines or so - which contains the very code that doesn't do what you intend, and post it here. People will leap upon it and tell you what's the matter with it.
