It looks like the syntax of the HTTP::Request::Common's POST function, except you replaced the call to POST with the string POST. And then you commented out that line entirely! The following is closer to what you want
use HTTP::Request::Common qw( POST ); my $request = POST($url, action => 'Count', name => 'datafile', Content_Type => 'multipart/form-data', Content => [ 'file' => [ $ballot_file ]] );

But you're not quite there yet. You have content fields outside of Content. Fixed:

use HTTP::Request::Common qw( POST ); my $request = POST($url, Content_Type => 'multipart/form-data', Content => [ file => [ $ballot_file ], action => 'Count', name => 'datafile', ], );

The example in the docs is

POST 'http://www.perl.org/survey.cgi', Content_Type => 'form-data', Content => [ name => 'Gisle Aas', email => 'gisle@aas.no', gender => 'M', born => '1964', init => ["$ENV{HOME}/.profile"], ]

I don't know how you got from that to what you posted. Or maybe you didn't bother to read the docs...

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
