script carrying over file with no problem but not text

202 New Member

Could use some help here.

This script is carrying over an image just fine but the text isn't coming over. can you see why it is not working????

from the form I want to carry over two lines of text and I can't find the error on why it isn't working.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Here is the form

That is the oddest perl based CGI script I ever seen. That type of scripting would have been before even the cgi-lib module was written, which is more than 10 years ago. I would look at how you are parsing the temp file.

Yeah the script is old, if you know of another script that uploads and displays an image along with text, I would appreciate the location of it.

If you know some perl you can adapt the script in this article I wrote. You will need to add the text fields you want to save along with the file. If you are totally unfamiliar with the CGI module you would want to read the CGI documentation.
