Hi Kevin, There are multiple ways of doing this, depending on what framework you're planning to use. For instance, the CGI module, mod_perl, and embperl (HTML::Embperl - this mailing list) all allow you to do file uploads pretty easily - your snippet is for a mod_perl solution (in perl).
If you're not already using embedded perl or mod_perl, you might be best exploring the CGI module (try 'perldoc CGI' and search for UPLOAD), if it's on your OSX box. If not, you can install it by downloading from CPAN (e.g. http://planetmirror.com/pub/cpan/modules/by-module/CGI/, in Australia), unpacking it somewhere, and doing perl Makefile.PL make make test make install Hope that helps.
