Perl File Upload Script

Hello, I have a website that currently uses a PHP-based script for a file uploader. However, I am running into problems with file size allowed. I am under the understanding that with Perl, this will not be a problem and that I can also have a status bar. So, what I need is just a file upload script that uploads the file to a database (that is already created) and then a status bar. Let me know if you can do this, I will need it integrated into my already existing site. Thanks, Matt
