Antonio,
  Below is a simple perl script that will upload a file to the server.

1) WARNING!!!! This is VERY insecure as ANYONE could upload ANYTHING to
your server. You will want to wrap this in some type of security. DO NOT
USE THIS AS IS!

2) The file will be written as the user running the Web server so be
sure that the Web server has write access to the $upload_dir


#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use CGI;

# Set up some variables
$upload_dir = "/home/htdocs/";
$query = new CGI;
$query->param('file') =~ m/.*\\(.*)$/;
$dest_file = $1;
$dest_file =~ s/\s//;

$upload_filehandle = $query->upload("file");
open UPLOADFILE, ">$upload_dir/$dest_file";
while ( <$upload_filehandle> )  {    print UPLOADFILE;  }
close UPLOADFILE;

exit(0);


The input form would point to the CGI and have an input field
(type="file") that is named "file"
