[Zope] image uploading problems: changing of object type

[R Karthick]

hi!!

thank you for you reply.

Infact i changed the content-type to text/xml.
Eventhough the content_type  of the file changes, it
still remains an "Image" and that gives me problems.
Can i change the type of the file using some api
function? It is like changing the type from
dtml-method to zpt file. similarly from Image to
ordinary "file".

Regards,
R K
