I need to allow users to upload an image via form. I based my script upon a template that someon ein my company had used in the past, but the upload part is not working. Can anyone see anything that might be causing the problem? Is it the file upload path? Thanks!

            #!/usr/bin/perl -w
            #NOTE: Don't forget to modify above path to Perl for the current server!!!
            # Global Variables
            $mail_prog = "/usr/lib/sendmail";
            use CGI::Carp qw(fatalsToBrowser);
