Bill, that looks like multi-part form data. I'm not very up on that,
but I think the numbers at the start of each part do have some
significance.
Maybe Dave or Andre can chip in here? Anyone?
best,
Mark

Thanks so much, Mark!
That worked; much easier than I thought... though the return from
stdin is
more like:
-----------------------------7d92ce191e091a
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="FirstName"
Bill
and not the value/parameter pairs you get from a GET. I wonder what
the
number in the first line signifies (it's not the value specified in
the
$UNIQUE_ID global).
It's interesting how a binary upload is handled... I get:
-----------------------------7d92ce191e091a
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="FileUpload"; filename=""
Content-Type: application/octet-stream
followed by a variety of stuff depending on what kind of document I've
submitted. It doesn't look like it's Mime (or Base64 encoded), and
it's
nowhere near the full number of bytes in the file. I might also
note that
uploading is considerably slower than, say, PHP -- a 20K JPG took
more than
two minutes. Is this something to do with the way the data is being
read?
What's the magic in handling a file upload? (Again, bare-bones.)
FWIW I think I'll put this together in an article for the next revUp
newsletter.

read from stdin until empty
put it after tData
add 1 to c
wait 20 millisecs
end repeat
return tData
end postData
note that it reads from stdin repeatedly until it's got something
- for
some reason, the data doesn't always appear straight away.
