need a script that allows users to select a file, have it processed

and return a link to the created ouput file back to the user.

I've written the file processing script.

Any hints/ pointers to a free script would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Ted

then the only part left is an upload, something that CGI.pm can do and is covered many time if you search for it. A quick google of "perl cgi upload" turned up this:

I'm not sure what it is that you're asking, but I'll do my best. Is it possible to perhaps do something like this:

&readparse(*fileprocesser.xyz)

print "

http://server.com/$nameoffile";

Could you provide more information on the project? I might be able to help you more. I built a program that allows a user to fill out a form then see the results of it before being sent to a database. Is that at all what you are trying to do?

Let me explain in more detail what I need:

I have a bunch of files of my website that can be processed on demand by users by clicking on them one at a time. I did write the processing script (it needs an input file and produces an output file). I need a script that will allow users to select an input file, pass it to the processing script and produce a temporary link to the output file for the user.
Thank both cradletoenslave and icrf for their replays.

Ted,

we code 4 money [&||kudos], we help because we like to. I'm not sure aboout the rest of the community, but I'd like to see some more info before progressing.

You need this, how much effort have you put in to the "problem described"
