I was able to get it working with the url string like you mentioned...
basically I store the session in the DB and generate a key that will expire
after some time. Then the key is appended to the URL. When the url is posted
the session is retrieved etc. etc. etc.

One thing that is annoying though is that you can't get the correct
content_type from the upload. Typically with a file upload you know what
type of file it is images/jpeg for example. However flash just defaults to
application/octecstream. That is really annoying for trying to parse out
good and bad file types.
