Cgi/Perl script for multiple file upload/attachment in web form

A

Avin Patel

Hi,
I am looking for perl/php script to allow multiple files can be
uploaded/attached in webform.

But I don't like the multiple input boxes using "<input type="file"
size="40" maxlength="40" name="filename[]">" html tag. As it will
limit the no. of files can be uploaded(only as many of this boxes I
write in form & doesn't look good in form also).

I ma looking for multiple file upload in web form using html tags
select or textarea.

Can any one suggest where this script can be found, I googled..., but
no luck over there.

Thanks,
Avin Patel

Try amazon.com. There is a great book on the subject in general: 'CGI.pm'
by Dr. Lincoln Stein. It is really a lot of fun using CGI.pm to do just
what you are trying to do. Good luck!

Hi Wana,
Thanks for the answer.

What is the cgi.pm? Is it normal cgi-perl. Do I need to install
anything on my web server to use cgi.pm based perl script?

Thanks,
Avin Patel

Avin Patel rudely spits TOFU in Wana's face:
What is the cgi.pm?

A mistyping of CGI.pm. Case is significant in Perl.
Is it normal cgi-perl.

Yes, any other way of doing CGI in Perl is abnornal. (Not that there
aren't other ways but CGI.pm is definitely the 'normal' one).
Do I need to install anything on my web server to use cgi.pm based perl script?

A moderately recent version of Perl. Any from this centurary should be
OK IIRC.
