Ok well I have corrected a couple more errors with the script and it
now has no errors during compile and runs until it goes to report
problems it has found back to the user:

password, CLSCC Email, and Student Number

}
Just submitting a blank form is enough to trigger the problem I have
(see for yourself http://vendion.dyndns.org/cgi-bin/register.cgi), it
looks like the script stops execution or fails once it hits this block
of code:
if ( @errors ) {
while ( @errors ) {
print $_, "\n";
print "<br>\n";
}
}
According to my browser the page never finishes loading and it starts
to draw the table but never finishes. I don't know if it is because I
am handling the @errors array wrong in the print_form() subroutine
(completely possible, first time doing anything like this in Perl), I
know it has to be that block of code because I can commit it out and
everything works smoothly.
