I won't repeat what has already been said about your database code but read it again, it's important.

In the first piece of code you are doing something odd:

print $cgi->header;
print $session->header;

I don't think that it will cause a failure but you might want to examine the generated headers to be certain. You really only the second line.

Moving on to second piece of code...

What is use sub test(); supposed to do? I'm not familiar with the sub pragma. Is it one you wrote or should that really be use subs qw(test);?

You cannot print anything in a CGI program before printing the headers but you've done just that. Move the print "<html><head>"; after the call to print $session->header;.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.


Come for the quick hacks, stay for the epiphanies.
