in thread cgi and upload_hook

not the form name, the form field name

If you have this in your form:

<input type="file" name="myFile">

the form field name, the one that holds the file you're uploading, is.... 'myFile'.
You can access it with:

my $var = $cgi->param("myFile");

I vaguely offended by your response sir. I know how to use CGI well enough. The trouble is it's not set up in a way that will allow me to use it as I like (ie, access already parsed post variables in an upload_hook call)

please read the demo again, i suppose i'm looking for workarounds or ideas for patching/hacking CGI.pm
