BTW: There is a beginners-cgi list:
http://lists.perl.org/showlist.cgi?name=beginners-cgi
I think this is partially what you are looking for.
hyperlink way to send parameters can be done in html page w/out cgi script:
<html>
<body>
<a

k</a>
</body>
</html>
Then on script.cgi, use CGI.pm to parse data.
