Check out -nosticky
It doesn't work™. Replacing the use line with use CGI qw/-nosticky/; doesn't change anything. The documentation of -override mentions -no_sticky so I tried it too, to no avail (it must be a typo). Also tried $q->nosticky, $q->nosticky (1) and $CGI::NOSTICKY = 1 after some googling.
and -override
This solves the problem, although it has the drawback that I have to add it everywhere. Thank you!

Peaking at the source suggests that $CGI::nosticky(1) should work as well.
You probably want to also force a refresh in your browser. Some/most browsers will remember the contents of fields for you as well so determining if its CGI or your browser can be annoying. Check the source produced by your code. If you are using -nosticky then it should be outputing the value you define in the script, otherwise it should be outputing the value last entered (/me thinks).

$CGI::nosticky(1) is a syntax error, like saying package CGI; $nosticky(1);. What is happening now is that the values of the dropdown must have at least two characters. If they have one, they don't get updated, even if I use -nosticky and -override :^). Workaround: do ['01' .. '31'] instead of [1 .. 31]. Oh well.
Since this is yet another XP stats tool, I'm leaving it alone. I'm not specially proud of the code, and I was planning to post a SoPW along with it, asking for some flames.
