How can I allow file uploads to my web site? 

These things are necessary for Web-based uploads:* An HTTP server that accepts uploads.* Access to the /cgi-bin/ to put the receiving script. Prewritten CGI file-upload scripts are available.* A form implemented something like this:<form method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data" action="fup.cgi">File to upload: <input type=file name=upfile><br>Notes about the file: <input type=text name=note><br><input type=submit value=Press> to upload the file!</form>Not all browsers support form-based file upload, so try to give alternatives where possible.The Perl CGI.pm module supports file upload. The most recent versions of the cgi-lib.pl library also support file upload. Also, if you need to do file upload in conjunction with form-to-email, the Perl package MIME::Lite handles email attachments.
