You have the right idea:
my $body = param('body');
my $nav = param('nav');
my $bg = param('bg');
Incidentally, you might have multiple values for the same name (such as being able to
select
several checkboxes:
<input type="checkbox" name="sport" value="basketball"> Basketball
<input type="checkbox" name="sport" value="soccer"> Soccer
<input type="checkbox" name="sport" value="baseball"> Baseball
To pull in every value that was selected, use an array:
my @sports = param('sport');
If you were to use a scalar (my $sport = ...), then param() would only return the
first sport
selected.

Someone asked me how to count to 10 in Perl:
push@A,$_ for reverse q.e...q.n.;for(@A){$_=unpack(q|c|,$_);@a=split//;
shift@a;shift@a if $a[$[]eq$[;$_=join q||,@a};print $_,$/for reverse @A
