Creating your first Perl CGI script
Now create the following Perl CGI script file by opening the new file vi /var/www/cgi-bin/perl-test.cgi and putting in the following content:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use CGI qw(:standard);
print header;
my $now = localtime;
print start_html(-title=>'Server time via Perl CGI'),
h1('Time'), p("The time is $now"),
end_html;

Example:
<html>
<head></head>
<body>
<b> Search Your Query:</b><br>
<FORM action="Gfg_get.pl" method = "GET">
<input type="text" name="q" size="20" maxlength="120">
<input type="submit" value="Search"><br>
<input type="radio" name="l" value="Web" checked>Web
<input type="radio" name="l" value="India">IND
</FORM>
</body>
</html>
Perl-CGI script for the above GET method form:
#!"c:\xampp\perl\bin\perl.exe"
$buffer = $ENV{'QUERY_STRING'};
#split information into key/value pairs
@pairs = split(/&/, $buffer);
foreach $pair (@pairs)
{
($name, $value) = split(/=/, $pair);
$value =~ tr/+/ /;
$value =~ s/%([a-fA-F0-9] [a-fA-F0-9])/pack("C", hex($1))/eg;
$value =~ s/~!/ ~!/g;
$FORM{$name} = $value;
}
$SearchTerm = $FORM{'q'};
$Location = $FORM{'l'};
print "Content-type:text/html\r\n\r\n";
print "<html>";
print "<head>";
print "<title>GeeksForGeeks - Get Method</title>";
print "</head>";
print "<body>";
print "<h3>Hello You searched '$Location' for '$SearchTerm'<br>
Few Matches Found!<br>
<br>
Match 1<br>
Match 2<br>

Match 4<br>
etc.....</h3>";
print "</body>";
print "</html>";
