#! /usr/bin/perl

missing:

use strict;
use warnings;

# get Perl to help you help yourself before asking here.

require("CGI.pm"); ....
use CGI;

Which of these do you mean (almost certainly the second)? This problem
has already been pointed out to you, as have others still in your code.
Read, understand, and act on advice rather than just reposting your problem.
