Summary: overriding content-type in urllib

Initial Comment:
urllib should allow the user to set the content-type. 
This would allow applications to do more than just
"forms posting" -- e.g., use it to make SOAP requests.
The attached patch allows that.

Okay,  I'll accept that.  Had HTTP documented that it
included HTTPS I wouldn't have made the initial mistake. :)
Let me know if you want the diff.

There's no uploaded file!  You have to check the checkbox labeled
"Check to Upload & Attach File" when you upload a file.

Please try again.

(This is a SourceForge annoyance that we can do nothing about.
:-( )

Isn't SOAP an HTTP application? Then you shouldn't be using
urllib, but httplib.
