Files are being uploaded from users with a web form like this: <form method="post" action="uploadAction" ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data"> <input type="file" name="filedata"> <input type="submit" value=" Report Sighting "> </form> <dtml-var "filedata.read()"> will give me the contents of the file but <dtml-var "filedata"> and <dtml-var filedata> return nothing. So my question is, how can I get the string that was in the upload text box so I can parse a filename from it? Thanks, Charlie
