Backspace Not Working in Script

Hello,

I've written a Perl script that prompts for asnwers to questons. At those prompts, the backspace key shows up as ^H^H.

I would like the users to have the ablility to use the backspace key. I'm running bash shell and don't otherwise have this problem.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
