Re-arranging your response for posterity. ;) So even in that situation, instead of using 'client.get' you can use 'client.post', and then put the file contents as part of the request. This isn't easily supported at the moment because the client requires that the contents be in a string. If your file is large (multiple megabytes) it is an issue and I'm going to address that limitation in the coming 0.9 release. Let me know if you need any more information regarding how to make the file contents part of the POST request. -- Dean Michael Berris deanberris.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Increase Visibility of Your 3D Game App & Earn a Chance To Win $500!
