Is it a tip to include a print statement at line 5 ?

I presume you mean this....

print $query->param(    -name=>'TblMenu',
                        -value=>$STable);

I tried that but it did not work?

Ok, I (now really having read the code) presume, that you
simply want to set the CGI-variable, don't you?
In this case, perldoc CGI tells:


the param() routine is used to set a CGI parameter
[..]
$q->param(-name=>'veggie',-value=>'tomato');


where $q is determined by the previously stated
$q = new CGI; # create new CGI object

So, your statement seems perfectly right. The only clue
is, that you "call it from another Perl script". In this
case you have to export/import variables, haven't you?
If so, wait for another PerlMonk to answer this, because
I am not experienced with exchanging variables between
perlscipts.
