How do you know what's in the directory without accessing the client's 
filesystem?

CFFILE's "upload" function is a little misnamed.  What it actually does 
is allow you to move/copy/modify the file that has already been pushed 
to the server by the browser.  CFFILE doesn't upload anything, it just 
shows you what was uploaded.

Does that make sense?
