use CGI;
use strict;
sub GetDirectoryName()
{
    #Perl's special variable, $$ returns the current pid and $^T retur
+ns the timestamp (in seconds since 1970).
    #time stamp PID and a counter are used to make a uniqe dir name
    my $counter = 0;
     my $dir_name = "";
     do { 
         $dir_name = sprintf("%s%s%s%s","cgh",$$,$^T,$counter++);
     } while -e $dir_name;
 
     return $dir_name;
 
}
my $query = new CGI;
my $DirName=GetDirectoryName();
my $UploadDir = "/var/www/website/output/tmp/" . $DirName;
my $command = "mkdir $UploadDir";
system ($command);
my $UserFilename = $query->param("uploadFile");
$UserFilename =~ s/.*[\/\\](.*)/$1/;

my $GivenUserFilename=sprintf("%s%s",$DirName,".HTML");
my $UserFilehandle = $query->upload("uploadFile");

open UPLOADFILE, ">$UploadDir/$GivenUserFilename";
while ( <$UserFilehandle> ){    print UPLOADFILE ;}
