does the file user_test have write permissions for the user/group nobody?
Because apache runs under the user/group nobody when executing perl
scripts..
try to see apache's error log and u will get some info..
put some logging in your script to know where you are getting problems.

I am developing a webinterface for updating few files installed on my LINUX
machine, for which  I have created a file user.html and this file calls a
file named "newuser.pl", which just takes the data of the user.html form and
appends it in a file in its directory name "user_test". The script written
in newuser.pl is working fine when i am manually executing it. But when the
script is executed from the webpage, it does everything correct except that
it doesn't updates the file "user_test". Can anybody suggest why is it
happening?
