...still working on this...

I've installed CGI::FileUpload to see where that gets me. Here's my current code: 

sub customerupload{
        my $self = shift;
        my $q = $self->query;
        my @data;
        my $error = "";
        my $filename = $q->param('uploadfile');
        my $file;
        if($filename) {
                my $filehandle = new CGI::FileUpload();
                $file = $filehandle->upload('query'=>$q);
                my $data;
                while(<$file>) {
                        $data .= $_;
                }
                if($data) {
                        $error = 'Successfull upload';
                }
                else {
                        $error .= $CGI::VERSION."Nothing read<br>$file
+name<br>$file<br>"."<br>$!<br>";
                }
        }
        else{$error .= $CGI::VERSION."file not uploaded <br>$filename<
+br>$file<br>"."<br>$!<br>";}
        return $self->template({ file => 'customers.html', vars => {er
+ror           => $error, }});
}

However, it crashes at the line in CGI::FileUpload.pm that uses the CGI::upload method (back to square 1): 
my $fhin=CGI::upload('uploadfile')||CORE::die "cannot convert [$filena
+me] into filehandle: $!";

The error message actually returns the name of my file i'm trying to upload. The CGI::FileUpload is creating the tmp files in /tmp/CGI-FileUpload dir: the key file (0 K), the key.part file (0 K), and the key.properties file (creates the file_orig, from_id, from_ipaddr, key, pid, and upload_status fields).

don't know if I'm getting anywhere or not...
