OK I misunderstood your previous mail. Its not that you don't want to use Ajax its that you don't want to drive it via the browser UI? In that case you should be able to call the Ajax API directly using urllib or cgi possibly some higher level Ajax module - I suspect one will exist somewhere! But at this point we probably need to see some code to see how you are trying to do it. -- Alan G Author of the Learn to Program web site http://www.alan-g.me.uk/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/alangauldphotos ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor

To use http the server at the other end needs to know what you are trying to do. Given it already publishes an Ajax interface I'd have thought it was unlikely to also have a raw http interface for file uploads. file. I performed it using post method. But dint get the required result. The uploaded file dint appear in the site. Does the server have a page that accepts post requests to upload files? If not it won't recognize your post request and possibly just ignore it or hopefully send you an http error back. Did you check the http error code returned?
