Read through CGI.pm (perldoc CGI). You'll learn a lot about CGI
programming in perl from there itself. If you still need more info,
there's nothing better than reading code and writing code. Pick one of
the samples from any tute (good or bad) and modify it to be CGI.pm
compatible. That way you'll get good practice.
I remember a time when one of my co-workers was showing my boss some
project. He asked a general question about getting a file to a server and
I told him that it could be done using the CGI POST method. I had done
very little CGI programming then, and had never uploaded files. He asked
me to get it ready before he left the room. A quick grep through CGI.pm
got me the code ready in 5 minutes.
