The reason I asked about the .htaccess files is because I thought that _maybe_ there might be something in prod site that allows jpegs and gifs to be uploaded, or the other way 'round, on the dev site that stops the uploading.
It's a shot in the dark but worth a look.

There is one controlling the "devArea" realm, and it is at: https://skunkWerkz.hosting-advantage.com/superSecretTesting/ The second one I have is at: https://skunkWerkz.hosting-advantage.com/updateAdmin to control the "administration" realm There is some other info, related to this that may be of use: The real name name of the site is www.imperialthrust.com. Since this is just a rock band's web site, I didn't need my own certificate for ecommerce, but I did want to use the web hosts shared cert so I could secure a section of the site for administration. I was given the 3rd level domain alias: skunkWerkz.hosting-advantage.com that apparently bounces me through their authentication server. For a while the web site was not registered, so I've been connecting directly to skunkWerkz.hosting-advantage.com directly. But I've been running some tests and it looks as if when I go through https://www.imperialthrust.com/superSecretTesting/updateAdmin/MP3_Add.php, for some strange reason, jpegs and gifs are now able to be uploaded. It appears to be working, but I sure wish I knew why....
