I've looked at Zope HowTo on getting a "neat filename" stripped when uploading one. I also scoured the mailing lists on anything dealing with manage-addFile, but only succeeded in finding someone who encountered the same problem I have - no solution that works yet, though ! As far as the file_size limitation in uploading is concerned, I would be thankful to encounter that problem because then at least the damn file is trying to upload fully ! I am not even there yet .... Here's the problem: We have developed a product that, amongst other things, manages the client's Product Documentation. He can add Manuals (Manual_ZClass with Object Manager Base Class and ZPatterns Specialist) and then upload associated files for the specific manual. The file uploads but it is only a reference (path) to the file that loads - almost like a shortcut. It seems as if the actual file does not upload. form action does have enctype and post-method I use a Python Method that looks like this: FileID=file[_.max(_.string.rfind(file, '/'), _.string.rfind(file, '\\'), _.string.rfind(file, ':'), )+1:] self.manage_addFile(FileID, file) parameters passed are: "self, file" I'm a bit of a newbie - and stumped ! Any ideas would be appreciated. Gustav Franzsen
