is probably a place to start.
On that topic: I've got my file upload working properly (it forwards the file data to an external site, then saves only if validation works). But I just started to wonder about something; all my tests have been with relatively small files (~40KB) but my end users may be uploading some very large files (possibly as large as 500KB, although not for months). In my python script I use: filedata = container.REQUEST.file.read() then merge this data into a MIME submission for the external web site, and on success, save it locally as a "file". My question is -- aside from memory usage, what problems might there be with this approach? Will the "read()" return all the content, or is there a possibility that it will return less than the full file contents? Any timeout issues that I should consider? I can test with large files, but can't really emulate internet network latencies. Thanks, Nikko
