I found the following in a book when trying to find out the file's MIME type, but it doesn't work. Am I missing something obvious? Thanks. M.
code:

#!/usr/bin/perl -W
use CGI ':standard';

$file = param('music_file');
$info = uploadInfo ($file);
$type = $info -> {'Content-Type'};

print "Content-type:text/html\n\n";
print $type;
exit;

Other than the 'use strict' ;-). It appears correct, what is the error that is given? "it doesn't work" is not terribly descriptive. What does your form code contain? What does the web server's log say? Have you tried printing something before printing the type, to prevent "Document contains no data" errors?
