I have the following code to upload a file to a webserver:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use CGI qw (:standard);
use CGI::Carp qw( fatalsToBrowser );
$CGI::DISABLE_UPLOADS=0;
print header;
$fh = upload('photo');
print h1("$fh");
open(PIC,'>>../pic.jpg') || die "Cannot open file: $!";
binmode(PIC) || die "Cannot binmode: $!";
while (<$fh>) {
print $_;
}
close(PIC);
print br,Dump,br;
print br, img{src=>"../pic.jpg"};
Now I know it won't actually print to the file as it is, I changed the print statement so it should print straight to the browser. However, all it returns is
<h1>E:\309856393_0b02b023d6.jpg</h1><br /><ul>
<li><strong>photo</strong></li>
<ul>
<li>E:\309856393_0b02b023d6.jpg</li>
</ul>
<li><strong>submit</strong></li>
<ul>
<li>GO FOR IT</li>
</ul>
</ul><br /><br /><img src="../pic.jpg" />
in IE and
<h1>309856393_0b02b023d6.jpg</h1><br /><ul>
<li><strong>photo</strong></li>
<ul>
<li>309856393_0b02b023d6.jpg</li>
</ul>
<li><strong>submit</strong></li>
<ul>
<li>GO FOR IT</li>
</ul>
</ul><br /><br /><img src="../pic.jpg" />
in Firefox.
It does this whether I do <$fh> or read($fh,$buffer,1024). Is there something I'm missing or do I need to do something else to make it read the file?

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).
