Hello Bart and Ahmad

It was weird that this started happening now, as I could swear it didn´t before, with the same code. But I just could solve it by closing the filehandle of the uploaded file, like this:

...

close PHOTO;
close $photocover;
[download]

Now the file still gets created at my scripts dir, but is deleted right away, when I close the handle.

But anyway, thanks a lot for the ideas.
