It might help if you were to indicate what help you want.

Also it would be best to enclose your script in code tags so thatformatting is preserved, it makes it much easier to read.

Okay that is the code what it is supposed to do is work with a form to upload
files and email the form info.

Can someone take a look and tell me where the problem is

The error is 500
Unexpected server error.
It doesn't give any details.

Sorry new here I edited and added the details after.
My srver is giving me a very plain error message and doesn't give a line number either...

Can you access the server log? I mean the Apache error log? If you are on a paid host, you can mostly access it (via CPanel, Plesk or something like that), or maybe you can have access to the physical log too (for dedicated server). Most of the time the exact perl error should be there with the line number with some context information.

The 500 internal server error message is not the perl error message that should give. Unless you can give this error, it is impossible to tell what went wrong.

Premature end of script headers: /home/MEUSERID/public_html/cgi-bin/order.cgi Execution of order.cgi aborted due to compilation errors. {" syntax error at order.cgi line 71, near ")

Okay it seems to me I am having a problem with the ending of the script before the files are finished uploading. I thinks this is because I combined 2 old scipts I wrote and edited for the needs of this site so can someone tell me where I need to put the
exit0;
command at at I think that should solve the problem....
Or at least the one I know about now.

Thank You
Nikah
