in reply to form buttons

Usually you give your submit button a value and a name: 
<input type="submit" name="action" value="Search">
<input type="submit" name="action" value="Logout">

[download]
and if you 
use CGI;

[download]
you can then test for what action to do: 
if (param("action") eq "Search") {
   # ...
}
# ...

[download]

Please take into account that this comes from the back of my head and I have not been doing CGIs for more than a year now; still it should be correct.

you begin bashing the string with a +42 regexp of confusion
