I see, so under what circumstances would the code I have written above work - I presumed it would let a client upload files to a server, but I also felt it looked much too easy - this is my first time doing any file uploading!. I wrote this code because I want to allow people to upload files to my server - these files will eventually be organised using MySql. WHat modifications will I need to make - security is a big issue too - is it possible to give someone enough access in order for them to upload a file without compromising server security - im sure it is.
Anyway Thanks,
Barry.
This is the html I'm using to call the script -
<HTML><BODY>
<FORM ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data" ACTION="http://baz.perlmonk.org/co
+okie.cgi" METHOD="POST">
Please choose directory to upload to:<br>
<SELECT NAME="dir">
<OPTION VALUE="images">images</OPTION>
<OPTION VALUE="sounds">sounds</OPTION>
</SELECT>
<p>
Please select a file to upload: <BR>
<INPUT TYPE="FILE" NAME="file">
<p>
<INPUT TYPE="submit">
</FORM>
</HTML></BODY>
