#!/usr/bin/perl -w
# mytest.cgi
use strict;
use CGI 2.78 qw/:standard :html3 -no_xhtml/;
use CGI::Pretty qw/:html3/;
my %labels = (
'0' => '?????',
'1' => '1',
'1 1/2' => '1 1/2',
'2' => '2'
);
print header(), start_html("cgi_pm_test.cgi"),
start_form(),
popup_menu(-name=>'baths', -Values=>\%labels, -default=>'1'),
submit(-name=>'submit', -Value=>'Click Me'),
end_form(),
end_html;
the following output gets produced:
