in reply to uploading a image file

helloo

Okay I sorta changed the coding I posted above justa bit. replace open OUTPUT, '>'."/home/gambler_add/adpics/testing.gif" With open OUTPUT, '>'."/home/gambler_add/adpics/$my_filename" When just having "testing.gif", the upload code actually works....but my goal is to create a random name for the file being uploaded , and thus having it be stored as $my_filename.

thanks!
