in reply to CGI Question: Getting and saving form parameters

Well if you are using param() from the CGI module, then readin the POST data will probably screw something up. Try this: 
use CGI qw( param );
...
sub save_information {
  my $text1 = param('text1');
  my $text2 = param('text2');

  open(INFO, ">>testing123.txt"); # Open for appending
  print INFO "$text1 , $text2\n";
  close (INFO);

print <<END;
<HTML>
<BODY>
<P><H1><B>Thank you for saving your file...</B></H1><P>
</BODY>
</HTML>
END
}

If that doesn't fix it, then post your HTML form that is doing the submitting and the problem could be in there.
