    -T is the taint option used to mark input to the script as untrusted.

    When running from the command line, you need to run as
    perl -Tc db_ClubCGI.cgi


    I think that you might have to remove the -T from the first line of the cgi script. Not sure though.
    Should look like
    #!/usr/bin/perl

    When running from the web server, the -T must be added to the script line.
