I don't think you need the qw/:standard/ if you're using the
object oriented style, ie $q->header, etc.

Heres some perl code. 

print $q->header(-type=>'text/html',
                 -expires=>'+30s',
                 -pragma=>'no-cache',
                 -cache-control=>'no-cache');

gives the output
