You can use an html form with an action to call your next script.

this is a very basic example...

HTML page

Code

<form action=./script.cgi?hello method=post> 
<input type=hidden name=test value=12334> 
<input type=submit value=NEXT> 
</form>

script

Code

#!/usr/bin/perl 
 
use strict; 
use CGI; 
 
my $cgi = new CGI; 
 
print $cgi->param('test') if $cgi->param('hello');
