Hi Gurus,
Sorry for less(or maybe wrong) data. I have uploaded the file through an
html page. Now my action program has to parse this excel file. It is in CGI so I
tried the following thing:
<code>
use CGI;
my $file_handle = $query->upload("excel_file");
if (defined $file_handle)
{
binmode($file_handle);
$attachment .= $_ while <$file_handle>;
}
close $file_handle;
open(UPLOAD, ">$file_name") || print "Can not open $file_name:$!";
binmode UPLOAD;
print UPLOAD $attachment;
close(UPLOAD);
## Now I start with my excel parsing using Spreadsheet::ParseExcel on $file_name
</code>
I hope I am clear. I am too confised currently.
Thanx,
Parvez
