An example of an online upload form? Sure -- Gmail's "Basic HTML"  
interface for attachments is a good example. I'd advise doing a web search  
or two for HTTP file uploads, multipart forms, and so on.

Just a tip with regarding to posting to this and other lists -- if you put  
your response *below* the quoted text that you are replying to, it helps  
people understand the conversation, and doesn't force them to scroll down  
and try to figure out who said what when (which can be a bit frustrating).
