Your question has nothing to do with DBI - I suggest you try a general
Perl formum.
But before you post there lurk for a while. Your code illustrates
many bad habits of the sort that make your code less reliable and are
always under discussion in the Perl fora.
Failure to delare variables in correct lexical scope.
Failure to enable strict/warnings to help Perl to help you.
Relative path in CGI script (doesn't work on all HTTPDs).
Using .cgi suffix for a perl4 style library (obfuscation).
Using Perl4 style libraries in CGI scripts (doen't play nice with
mod_perl).
Useless use of BEGIN {}
Useless use of & in subroutine calls.
BTW the error trapping mechanism in Perl is eval{}.
For details:
perldoc -f eval
But DBI does not thow Perl errors as a result of database errors
unless you tell it to. If you don't tell it you have to explicitly
check for errors after each operation.
For details:
perldoc DBI
