im trying to upload (via a web form) an image
file and then put it into a mysql table

(wow i bet thats never been done befre)

                my $filehandler = $cgi->upload('file');

                while ( <$filehandler> ) {

                        print $_;

                }

is just returning nothing

                my $filehandler = $cgi->upload('file');

                while ( <$filehandler> ) {

                        $filecontents .= $_;

                }

                my $sth = $dbh->prepare();
                $sth->execute($filecontants);
                $sth->finish();


nothing goes into the field of the table. im running debain with perl straight out of apt-get i get the feeling that debian is doing things funny because i cant seem to get outside of the current directory (eg ../ or ../../../files/ or even absolute paths) could be apache2 and mod_perl

anyway ive googled poor firefox to death. im sure its
an easy fix
