what file upload script?<br />

If you're talking about the cgi-lib I think you're talking about (the one that has ReadParse() which sets the hash %in), then the file contents are actually assigned to a CGI parameter. You then write that variable's value to whatever file you want. The name of the CGI parameter is the name of the file upload box on your HTML page. So if your HTML file had this:<br />
<br />
&lt;input type=file name=&quot;thefile&quot;...&gt;<br />
<br />
then $in{'thefile'} in the perl script will hold the file contents.<br />

File Upload Problems

Perl is a high-level, general-purpose, interpreted, dynamic programming languages with over 25 years of development. Perl 5 runs on over 100 platforms from portables to mainframes and is suitable for both rapid prototyping and large-scale development projects.  Perl gained widespread popularity as a Common Gateway Interface (CGI) scripting language, in part due to its regular expression and string parsing abilities. In addition to CGI, Perl is used for graphics programming, system administration, network programming, finance, bioinformatics, and other applications.
