passing variables from one form to another using Perl

I have seen something like this before, but the HWG search seems to be out
so I was not able to check the archives.

I have a two part form where the visitor fills in some information and then
that information should be passed to another form filling in the fields with
the information that the visitor has supplied using Perl

I have no trouble passing the contents of the form variables to the body of
the page, but when I try to put them into the 'value' of the form element,
it only shows the variable name and not the value.

I have tried to enclose the variable name in single, and double quotes, and
no quotes.  What is the format that a variable going into another form
element should follow?

Thanks in advance.  If you need any snippets, I would be happy to include
them.
