in thread file upload using Embperl

Hi,
Sorry ....
Here is the HTML form informations
<form action="load.html" name="form1" method="post" enctype="multipart +/form-data"> <table> <tr class="cell4"> <td>Select EXCEL rate sheet</td> <td><input type="file" name="file" value=""></td> </tr> <tr class="cell3"> <td>&nbsp;</td> <td><input type="submit" name="upload" value="upload"></td> </tr> </table> </form>

and Embperl code used is
if((defined $fdat{file} && $fdat{file}) && $fdat{upload}) { $filename = "/tmp/sample.txt"; open (FILE, "> $filename") || die("open failed: $!"); while (read($fdat{file}, $buffer, 32768)) { print FILE $buffer || die("print test: $!"); } close FILE || die("close test: $!"); }
If we remove enctype="multipart/form-data" form property, can see the form data (filename) after submiting the page.
includng enctype="multipart/form-data" in form will give undef filename. Any idea?
thanks

    Compare your code to embperl upload ( Embperl-2.4.0/test/html/upload.htm )

    In fact, I would use Embperl-2.4.0/test/html/upload.htm to figure things out

    Testing for ref $fdat{upload} seems simplest
