RE: Re: handling file uploads.

[Punto]

question about the code on that thread: is there any way to find out the name of the file that's being uploaded?

Thanks..

See This Node in the thread.

There _is_ a problem with the name parameter though; on some system/browser combinations it consists of the whole path to the file. I guess you coud yse split on "/" and/or \. does anyone have a better solution?

The core File::Basename module may be of assistance. You might also have luck with a regex like the following: $filename =~ s!.*[/\]([^/\]*?)!$1!; I put more stock in the module than in my regex, however.
