Hi,
I'm trying to set up a simple file upload page, using httpd and cgi-bin.
Basically, what I'm missing is a way to “grab” the variable name (for lack of a better term), of the uploaded file.
I'm using a bash based cgi script.

On the web page I have:

The webpage does not error, but – I can see in the logs that I am not able to “grab” the file name in any way. I assumed that resulting file name/descriptor/value would have been “file_name”, but, I cannot do anything in the cgi-script by relating to “file_name” .
Any help is most appriciated.

Thank you .

See something like http://oinkzwurgl.org/bash_cgi ?

Thank you unSpawn,
I've stumbled upon a similar page in my searches. And, I assume this could get the job done, though I do not understand each line in this code, I get the majority of lines' meaning.

I believe there should be a simpler solution (I'd prefer to use one which I fully understand).
For example, with other cases, the value after “name= “ has been always sufficient with passing the value of data entered, from the webpage, to the CGI script. I assume, it should take less than an rather complicated script in order to achieve so.
(Perl has some useful facilities, but it's not a grand type of solution I'm looking for).

I'm sure an easier script is a possibility, esp. since the file name should be somewhere in the variables the web server receives. Can you make BASH print those like you would with

Mm.. I am not sure if bash "sees" the same vars (or var names) which php does. Don't know much about it. The best that I know is, to follow the "name" value , in the <input > definitions. It served me well so far, [ but not now ]
