file upload

[robdunfey]

Hi, I was wondering if anyone has any ideas why my file upload code isnt working? The code makes the file in the appropriate folder, in this case a file called 'afile', but the file has no content?

Any help much appreciated,

Rob

PS I am uploading a file from a Windows machine to a UNIX server, I dont think this should make any difference?



#upload file
$upload_filehandle = $cgi->param("file1"


open UPLOADFILE, ">$projectdir/afile";

while (<$upload_filehandle>)
{
print UPLOADFILE;
}

close UPLOADFILE;

Check if you have enctype=&quot;multipart/form-data&quot; in your form tag.

Your form tag should look like this:

<form action=&quot;uploadscript.cgi&quot; method=&quot;POST&quot; enctype=&quot;multipart/form-data&quot;>
