Sure. Here goes quick hack to create Filename.txt text file with comment string inside:
in upload.cgi add this code after "&SaveFile(....);"
| Code: | open(FILE,">$c->{target_dir}/$fhash{file_name}.txt");
print FILE $fhash{file_descr};
close FILE; |

| is the variable 'file_descr' an already assigned variable? if so, where was the value assigned? I want to know because I want to write other input fields into the text file as well. |

um... it still doesn't work :p
the newline works when I don't put in the 3 lines of code but it doesn't work once i put in the code.
do I just need "newline" or do I also need to do a "detab" as well? cause all of the win32 dos programs don't work :p |

Then the error is inside upload.cgi code. Free or Pro xupload version?
I gave solition for Pro one. You can PM me ftp access to xupload folder so I can fix it quickly. |

Oh, ok then. Then replace old quick hack code in the same place to
| Code: | open(FILE,">$c->{target_dir}/$fn.txt");
print FILE $cg->param('comment');
close FILE; |
here I used text field with name="comment", you can use any name. |

how would you print multiple fields into the text file all split with a comma? ex. "comment,name,emailaddress,etc."
thx a lot! |

Replace
| Code: | | print FILE $cg->param('comment'); |
with
| Code: | | print FILE join(',', map{$cg->param($_)} qw(comment name emailaddress) ); |
