I am creating a script that requires the use of PHP. I know PERL can do much more than PHP can, but there are various factors involved. Basically, it is a simple upload script. I am using strict, and the error tells me that I have not defined the scalars within the PHP script, even though I have. I am no PHP programmer, and still have alot to learn about PERL. The PHP code is: 
<?
function uploadProg($filename1,$filename1_name){
########Set the destination here##############
$destination="Upload";
$address="http://24.65.85.177/games/upload/upload/"; # Complete path t
+o file (with trailing slash)
copy($filename1,$destination."/".$filename1_name);
echo "<FONT COLOR=TAN><b>$filename1_name was uploaded succesfully.</b>
+<br><br></FONT>";
echo "<A HREF=\"$address$filename1_name\"><FONT COLOR=TAN><b>$address$
+filename1_name</b></FONT></A><BR><BR><BR>";
}
function main(){?>
<form method="post" action="upload.php" enctype="multipart/form-data">
Upload Banner:<br>
<input type="file" name="filename1" size="20" tabindex="1"><br>
<input type="hidden" name="action" value="uploadProg">
<input type="submit" value="Upload Banner" tabindex="6">
</form><?}
switch ($action){
default:
main();
break;
case "uploadProg":
if ($filename1=="none") {echo("<BODY BGCOLOR=BLACK><h1><FONT COLOR=TAN
+>Please make sure you have selected a valid file\!</h1></FONT></BODY>
+"); break;}
uploadProg($filename1,$filename1_name);
break;
}
?>

I want to put this code inside an HTML block: 
print qq!
# code coes here

^^ One main reason I'm using PHP, is because every PERL script I've tried to use for uploading, it has not worked on my server (Win32- Apache).
If you can help, please drop me an e-mail at firebird34@swirvemail.com or reply here.
