I don't know why getContentType() doesn't exist anymore?!  a quick 'dir' of a file instance attributes yields:
 
['close', 'filename', 'fileno', 'flush', 'headers', 'isatty', 'read', 'readinto', 'readline', 'readlines', 'seek', 'tell', 'truncate', 'write', 'writelines', 'xreadlines']
Anybody out there know what happened to 'getContentType'?
 
 
However, there is always a work around:  REQUEST['fname'].headers['Content-Type']
should get you what you want.

Okay I corrected:

<form action="uploadForm.py" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">

and also tried the getContentType, but I get the error:

Error Type: AttributeError
Error Value: FileUpload instance has no attribute 'getContentType'

****uploadForm.py****
def content_type(self):
    return self.getContentType()

def writeDB():
    # get sql method
    insert=container['insert_fileapps']

    REQUEST=context.REQUEST
   
    department = REQUEST.form.get('department')
    title = REQUEST.form.get ('title')
    filename = REQUEST.form.get('upload_filename')

    upload_contents= content_type(filename)

    if content_type.find('image')!=-1:
        context.manage_addImage(id, file, title)
    else:
        context.manage_addFile(id, file, title)
    return 'Finished'

    version = REQUEST.form.get('version')
    url = REQUEST.form.get('url')
    ownerapp = REQUEST.form.get('ownerapp')
    isoapp = REQUEST.form.get('isoapp')
    comments = REQUEST.form.get('comments')
    date = REQUEST.form.get('date')

    filename=id
    filename = filename.split('\\')[-1]

    # call it, passing arguments
    insert( department=department, title=title, filename=filename, version=version, url=url, ownerapp=ownerapp, isoapp=isoapp, comments=comments, date=date)

    # return a confirmation page
    page=container['thanks.html ']
    return page()


writeDB()

Here's what I'm trying to accomplish:

1. The user fills out a form page with various fields
2. The user selects a file to upload
3. when the user hits submit two things should happen:
      - The file selected is uploaded
      - all the filled out form fields are written to the database (MS SQL)

This is my current problem:
The writting to the database part works fine on it's own, but when combined with the file upload I get this error

Error Type: AttributeError
Error Value: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'headers'
