I found a upload utility using cgi.pm. The script
works fine.. i can see data uploading, and the
script says successful, but when i look at the
directory on my isp the file is suppose to upload
to.. there is nothing there. Permissions are set
to 777. Any idea's? Also, i'm wondering how a
script can log into my isp and upload a file,
even though the script does not require any variables
that need my ISP's userID and Password. I found the
script here: http://www.onlinearts.net/showroom/takethis.
If it worked, it would be really cool. I seem to have
the worst luck. If spent a month messing around with
net::ftp, could never get the info i needed. Read some
posts that said it had to be installed at my ISP. Other
posts said it's installed on the client.. go figure.
Anyhow, if someone could enlighten me, that would be
great. Wagging tail.
