I just figured this out yesterday for something I'm doing....
my $cgi = new CGI ();
my $cookie = $cgi -> cookie ( "WHATEVER" );
if ( defined $cookie ) {
#cookie is there and do with it what you want, we'll print it:
$cgi -> cookie ( "WHATEVER" );
}
else {
# Make a cookie
my $cookie = $cgi -> cookie (
-name => "WHATEVER",
-value => "WHATEVER" );
print $cgi -> header ( -type => "text/html", -cookie
=> $cookie );
}
Something like that....you'll have to mess with it. I got all my learning about this from O'Reilly's CGI programming With Perl.
Good luck

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).

Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
