Okay, couldn't resist. Here's one that I have tweaked over the years:

sub uploader {   

   $| = 1;   #flush the output buffer
   my $sourcefile = $query->param('uploadimage'); #make sure your HTML
+ form tag uses enctype="multipart/form-data"
   my ($buffer, $bytes, $newfile);

   if ($sourcefile =~ /([\w .-]+)$/i) {;     #strip off path stuff
      $newfile = $1;
   } else {
      return("bad"); #returns to main prog for error handling
   }
   $newfile =~ s/ //;
   
   open (OUTFILE, ">$directory/$newfile") or die "Cannot open $newfile
+: $!";
   binmode($sourcefile);
   binmode(OUTFILE);

    
   while ($bytes = read($sourcefile, $buffer, 1024)) {
      print OUTFILE $buffer;
   }

   close(OUTFILE) or die "Close:$!";
   chmod (0666, "$directory/$newfile");
   
}
