Hello All, I am using PERL to generate an XML file from a database query. no problems there. I then try to use curl to send it to an upload script. Essentially the command line looks like this: curl -H 'Content-Type:text/xml' -d file.xml server/up.php for my up.php I am just trying to dump stuff out, like the POST and FILES arrays Both those arrays are empty. Any thoughts on how to debug this, and/or suggestions for handling this?

You're using the wrong cURL arguments. You need the "-F" argument. Read the cURL docs. There's also a curl mailing list whose archives you should search. Rabin
