cgi-question: html->perl text input
when i send the content of a text-input field, using a form on an HTML site , the string that is sent to my perl script contains '+' instead of ' ', and characters like exclamation and question marks are a mess. How do i avoid that, or transform the special character codes back into what was originally entered ?
Thanks alot for your help.
