Hi

Thanks for your previous help with this everybody but I still can't get this to work. I want to POST a file to a https server. GET is working fine.

This is the form on the server: 

<form action="https://<address>/cgi-bin/upload.pl" method="post" encty
+pe="multipart/form-data"> 

<input type="File" name="FILE1" size="40"> 
<input type="File" name="FILE2" size="40"> 
<input type="File" name="FILE3" size="40"> 
<input type="File" name="FILE4" size="40"> 
<input type="File" name="FILE5" size="40"> 
<input type="File" name="FILE6" size="40"> 
<input type="File" name="FILE7" size="40"> 
<input type="File" name="FILE8" size="40"> 
<input type="File" name="FILE9" size="40"> 
<input type="File" name="FILE10" size="40"> 

<input type="Submit" value=" Upload " >  <input type="reset" value=" R
+eset ">

This is my code (I have tried many variations of this): 

my $url = 'https://<address>/cgi-bin/upload.pl';
my $response = $browser->post($url,Content_Type => 
"multipart/form-data" Content => [file => ['data.txt']]);
print ($response->status_line);

I get an "OK" response but the file never gets to the server. Can you see anything wrong?

Thanks

Jonathan
