Arrgh! I have never understood the desire to immediately
place all parameters in a hash. This replaces all that.
Though it doesn't solve your problem.
my $file_data = $query->param( 'sequences' );
: open(SEQ,">/home/web/insequences");
: print SEQ $file_data;
: close SEQ;

Read about file uploads in the CGI.pm docs. You have been
misinformed about the use of this field with perl.
