Zope by itself cannot reach your client machine. It needs help
by a program running on that machine.

Options:

  * Can you not use "load_site" to upload the files?

  * Recently, there has been a discussion about Drag&Drop into
    Zope.
    Instead of entering the name of file to upload in a textbox
    (quite tedious and error prone) you would simply drag&drop
    the files (much easier).
    It is not yet clear how to implement the D&D.

    Search the archives for the thread.
