meta() is a method generated "on-the-fly", so to speak, by CGI.pm,
so you need to tell perl that you mean to be calling CGI::meta by
either:
1. Import meta when you use CGI:
use CGI qw(meta);
2. Call CGI::meta directly
print start_html(-head => CGI::meta({ ...
3. Use your CGI object:
print $query->start_html(-head => $query->meta({ ...
But unless you're generating a static HTML page here, why not just
generate the Refresh response header directly?
print $query->header(-refresh => 30);
