Went back and added the line to see what it thought the path was and it came up "0", so I went and looked at the .= code again and noticed it was wrong. Now I'm using
my $uploaded_path = "\\Inetpub\\wwwroot\\uploaded_files\\";
$uploaded_path .= $base;
print h2('Uploaded Path'),$uploaded_path;
open FILE, ">$uploaded_path";
binmode FILE;
and it works fine. As you can see above, I also esacped the \'s. Thanks!!
