Saving files from post data via sys.stdin

I am rewriting an existing PERL script I wrote several months ago. It is a
script that is used as the action for a form containing several type="file"
inputs. The script is run unbuffered and writes the data from sys.stdin to
a file which is stat'ed by another script called asyncornously from
javascript. In the end I am able to make a progress bar for file uploads
via http.
Anyway, I have printed sys.stdin to a file and looked at it afterward. This
is what is looks like
-----------------------------126591649570
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="userid"
myUserid
-----------------------------126591649570
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="ulimage"; filename="bc12.jpg"
Content-Type: image/jpeg
binary data of jpeg
-----------------------------126591649570
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="ulimage"; filename=""
Content-Type: image/jpeg
-----------------------------126591649570
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="ulimage"; filename=""
Content-Type: image/jpeg
-----------------------------126591649570
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="sessionid"
mySessionid
Normally, I use cgi.FieldStorage() and access the values via calls like
form = cgi.FieldStorage()
sessionid = form["sessionid"].value
What is the best method for accessing the various variables and their
respective values so I can save the files one at a time? Is there some
class that can take this input and make it easier to deal with? I need to
save each of the ulimage values as individual images and gain access to the
values of sessionid and userid.
Thanks
Amy
