That is Perl's built in system, simply printing HTML to STDOUT. But 
every Perl web developer with half a brain uses the CGI module to vastly 
extend Perl's capabilities, and perhaps also CGI::Application and 
HTML::Template as well.

use CGI;
my $cgi = new CGI;
my $name = $cgi->param("name");
print $cgi->header(-type => "text/html");

and so on...
