Uploading Image - Livecode Tutorial Example? Sessions?

Fri May 26 15:42:42 EDT 2017

I keep hoping for a server wide upgrade myself. I don't use the service all
that much so its not really a critical issue for me, but the one site that
IS actually up, and commercial and useful could be improved with an
alternate version.  I'll see if I can get the .htaccess example working ok,
and if so, then I'l think about potential changes.

Thanks for the previously working example.  Hopefully it will return to
being a currently working example.
