IFS= means set the Input Field Selector to nothing for the read statement, causing no field splitting and keeping leading and ending tabs intact.
-r means do not interpret the \ character.

HTML::FormHandler::Field::Checkbox(3pm) 		User Contributed Perl Documentation		   HTML::FormHandler::Field::Checkbox(3pm)

NAME
HTML::FormHandler::Field::Checkbox - a checkbox field type VERSION
version 0.40013 DESCRIPTION
This field is very similar to the Boolean Widget except that this field allows other positive values besides 1. Since unselected checkboxes do not return a parameter, fields with Checkbox type will always be set to the 'input_without_param' default if they do not appear in the form. widget checkbox checkbox_value In order to create the HTML for a checkbox, there must be a 'value="xx"'. This value is specified with the 'checkbox_value' attribute, which defaults to 1. input_without_param If the checkbox is not checked, it will be set to the value of this attribute (the unchecked value). Default = 0. Because unchecked checkboxes do not return anything in the HTTP parameters, the absence of a checkbox key in the parameters hash forces this field to this value. This means that Checkbox fields, unlike other fields, will not be ignored if there is no input. If a particular checkbox should not be processed for a particular form, you must set 'inactive' to 1 instead. AUTHOR
