dude still the problem persits...
This certainly seems like a buffering problem, the $| solution should work. Does your script or any of the modules that you are using selecting another filehandle (perldoc -f select, 1 argument form of select). The value of $| will affect the currently selected output channel (STDOUT is selected by default). All the print statements will also be directed to this output channel by default.
pls advise

Maybe this is a buffering problem. Try
$| = 1; # turns on autoflush
print "choose Change_Request,call_req or Both?>#";
chomp(my $choose_table= <STDIN>);
