I would have liked to do that right now, but I have had a little accident with my server (root shell access) which I think will most likely require a reinstall of the OS so I think I am going to put this problem on hold until I figure out a solution to the new problem.
As soon as I get everything figured out I will post a ticket with the siteworx info.
Here is the general CGI script I used, I have modified it slightly to fit my needs, but core code is the same, this is from the MegaUpload project (http://www.raditha.com/megaupload/)

# CHANGES:
# As of version 1.00 cookies were abolished!
# as of version 1.02 stdin is no longer set to non blocking.
# 1.40 - POST is no longer required and processing is more efficient.
# Please refer online docs for details.
# 1.42 - The temporary locations were changed, to make it easier to
# clean up afterwards.

# We don't want to decode the post data ourselves. That's like

#
# We can ask the CGI module to save the files, then we can pass
# these filenames to the PHP script. In other words instead of
# giving the raw post data (which contains the 'bodies' of the
# files), we just send a list of file names.
