Did you reproduce the code snippet accurately? As it is, it shouldn't run. Your sub
main body
has different start and end tags for the Here doc: "main_body" and "mainbody". Until
you fix
that, it won't even compile. Otherwise, if you could reproduce the exact code, that
would help.
However, have you considered using CGI.pm's HTML generating functions? The above code
is MUCH
short that way:
#!/usr/bin/perl -wT
use strict;
use CGI qw/:standard/;
print header,
start_html( -title => "Control Panel",
-bgcolor => "white" ),
"Hello World",
end_html;
