Uploading files Need some advise reg. $ENV{'CONTENT_LENGTH'}

[Tore]

Hi..

I'm new to Perl.

But it look like some magic can be done using perl compared to PHP when uploading files.

I looked at the FAQ regarding uploading of files using CGI.pm module.

In the example from the FAQ there was only one text field to enter the file to be uploaded.

I added one text field so it now look like this:

<FORM METHOD="POST" ACTION="/cgi-bin/tbk-upload.cgi"; ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data">
<P>Enter or Browse to the file you would like to upload.<BR>
<INPUT TYPE="file" NAME="FILEID" VALUE="" SIZE=50 MAXLENGTH=80><BR>
<INPUT TYPE="file" NAME="FILEID2" VALUE="" SIZE=50 MAXLENGTH=80><BR>
<INPUT TYPE="submit" NAME="submit" VALUE="uploadMe"></FORM>

The question:

Using only one field and then
print "Upload total size: '" . $ENV{'CONTENT_LENGTH'} . "'<br>";

in the tbk-upload.cgi displayes the approx size for the file to be uploaded.

If I use two text fields and select two files to be uploaded in the form and submit it then
$ENV{'CONTENT_LENGTH'}
displays the approx size for both of the files to be uploaded....

Is there a way for me to get the filesize of both of the files individually before handling of the individual files starts?

Now it looks like $ENV{'CONTENT_LENGTH'}
returns the length of all that is to be sent from the browser, I would like to know the size of the selected files, individually.

Regards
