Actually, error.log is always turned on... If you are not running the server
on
yours own, ask the server admin where is the error.log located.

What about your script ? simpleform.pl

You can't ask a value from param without use CGI in this case.

One more point, when you are going to write a script for real running,
always use strict.... You will know how pain it is to remember all the
var names that you've declared along the whole script. And most likely
have to rewrite the whole thing again when touching to maintenence or
debugging...
