This partially works but for some reason, PHP doesn't understand it
correctly, instead of the $_FILES, the $_POST gets populated like
this:
array('fileFormat\\"-----------------------------870375749853' =>
'.....file contents here')
For some reason PHP thinks that this is a simple POST variable and
doesn't treat it as a file.
