Take a look at "perldoc CGI". In the example right at the start of
the document, you'll see that an HTML Form is created. This form
posts data to the script it is called from. At the end of the
example, the data is collected using the param() method.
This is how data is passed around in web applications: HTML forms,
using "POST" or "GET. Good luck.
