in reply to Problematic UploadFile() method in CGI.pm

You need add a parenthesis to capture the hash reference, otherwise you will keep getting undef:

print h2('File MIME type'), (uploadInfo($file))->{'Content-Type'};

    I don't believe that's correct. See this small example: 
    my $hash = { a => 'b' };
sub foo { print $_[0], "\n"; return $hash; }
print foo('abcd')->{a};

    No parens required to use the arrow notation with a subroutine return value.
