File Uploads

Thanks, Dimitri.  Yes, I found that same code too and tried it with the
exact same result as the code I've uploaded (just hangs).  But, OK.  You
have it working, so it must be a systems issue.  Are you also on a Windows
IIS web server?  Do you have CGI configured the same way (i.e. .py =
python.exe -u %s %s)?

Thanks.
