I believe that you need to pass a reference to a (Update: Scalar) variable into the -textvariable parameter for an entry widget.
use Tk;
require Tk::Entry;
require Tk::Button;
my $mw = MainWindow->new();
my($var1, $var2) = ('val1', 'val2');
my $entry1 = $mw->Entry(-textvariable=> \$var1)->pack();
my $entry2 = $mw->Entry(-textvariable => $var2)->pack();
my $but = $mw->Button(-text=>'print', -command=> sub{print "$var1, $va
+r2\n"; } )->pack();
MainLoop;
__END__
# Output upon pressing print after changeing both entry widget's:
entry1, val2
Update: Please note that I intentioally left off the backslash on $val2 to demonstrate the different behavior when passing a simple value rather than a scalar reference.

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).
