Yes, I've started to get reports on this now and then, only from people
using IE5. So if you're using IE5, please do a test upload to
http://www.servlets.com/book/examples/ch04/upload.html (50K max)
and email me privately with your "yea" or "nay" success results.
Explanations and solutions you come up with by looking at the
MultipartRequest code are welcome too. :-) (I don't have IE5
installed anywhere, and would like to keep it that way.)
