Beginner question

Hi!
I'm new to MacPerl and I'm confuse about the way to text CGI with it.
Is obvious about syntax check but I don't know how to run the script 
in a real example where someone loads an HTML and press a submit 
button.
In other words how can I text an HTML form with macperl. I tried to 
run the script like when a I check for syntax error and I got the 
message "Offline mode: enter name=value  pairs on standard input", I 
wrote something like one,two,three,four pressed the return key but 
nothing happen.

Does anyone knows what I need to do to text my script and HTML page?

Thanks for any help
