I would probably either make the form part of the cgi program, and direct
the action to itself
#!/usr/bin/perl
print "content-type:text/html\n\n";
print "<form action=\"RightHere.cgi\" method=\"post\">\n";
print "<input type=\"checkbox��������������������������

Or- - (Redirect):

#!/usr/bin/perl
print "Location:http://www.BackToHere.htm\n\n";
