Hi, I thought I would try out your simple method of file upload. It works fine except the maximum file size dosn't seem to work. I'm uploading 2 meg files to the cgi script below, why isn't the limit working? 
#!/usr/bin/perl
use warnings;
use strict;
use CGI::Simple;
$CGI::Simple::POST_MAX = 1024;       # max upload via post default 100
+kB 
$CGI::Simple::DISABLE_UPLOADS = 0;   #enable uploads 

my $upload_dir='uploads';

my $q = new CGI::Simple;
print $q->header();

my $files    = $q->upload();                # number of files uploaded
+; 
my @files    = $q->upload();               # names of all uploaded fil
+es 
my $filename = $q->param('upload_file');    # filename of uploaded fil
+e 
my $mime     = $q->upload_info($filename,'mime'); # MIME type of uploa
+ded file 
my $size     = $q->upload_info($filename,'size'); # size of uploaded f
+ile 

# short and sweet upload 
my $ok = $q->upload( $q->param('upload_file'),"$upload_dir/$filename")
+;
print "Uploaded ".$q->param('upload_file')." and wrote it OK!\n" if $o
+k;

print "total files = $files<br> 
       filenames = @files<br> 
       filename = $filename<br> 
       mimetype= $mime<br> 
       size=$size<br>";
