POSTing a file to a web server

[Chipp Walters]

Hi Richard,

It's possible to do, but not necessarily trivial as you need to use a 
php or asp script on the server side. Check out in the documentation:

libUrlMultipartFormData

and you might want to take a look at the RFC1867 spec (Google)

I had an old library that did what you want, but it's been implemented 
now inside of libURL. It's called altSAFileUp Library and can be found at:

It may be useful to help explain the concept.
