Ok thanks for your comments.
But I am now very confused I found the below code @
http://www.wiley.com/legacy/compbooks/stein/source.html
Which runs a perl script opening a pop window?
So could you clear up my confusion please?
Can I use CGI.pm or not?
Regards
Gareth
#!/usr/bin/perl
#file: frames.pl
use CGI qw/:standard/;
print header,
start_html('Popup Window');
if (!param) {
print h1("Ask your Question"),
start_form(-target=>'answer'),
"What's your name? ",textfield('name'),
p(),
"What's the combination?",
checkbox_group(-name=>'words',
-values=>['eenie','meenie','minie','moe'],
-defaults=>['eenie','moe']),
p(),
"What's your favorite color? ",
popup_menu(-name=>'color',
-values=>['red','green','blue','chartreuse']),
p(),
submit,
end_form;
} else {
print h1("And the Answer is..."),
"Your name is ",em(param(name)),
p(),
"The keywords are: ",
em(join(", ",param('words'))),
p(),
"Your favorite color is ",em(param('color'));
}
print end_html;

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
