Hey guys,
I'm finally getting around to coding this and I'm getting the dreaded "does
not contain a file" error.  Below is the error and the code, can anyone see
what I'm doing wrong?

CF Error:
The form field "arguments.fileField" did not contain a file.

Form code:
http://codeshare.ulatu.com/mar01c39

Action code to call CFC:
http://codeshare.ulatu.com/mar47f18

Actual Function within CFC:
http://codeshare.ulatu.com/mare8dee

Thoughts anyone?

Ryan

That's true.  You should only use the entire form scope if you intend to
you all of it (or, perhaps if you have another really good reason)
