[PHP] Re: problem with $HTTP_POST_FILES
If they're empty but phpinfo displays them you're probably inside a function and haven't declared HTTP_POST_FILES as global.

Now I just feel like an idiot... that was the answer! I had all the other globals registered but that one. Thanks for your time! Jason.
