Mark,
I'm not quite sure what you're suggesting. I have no control of the
files before they are uploaded through a browser. These files could
come from any user. Are you suggesting to take the data that comes
in through the Rev CGI and use base64decode on it before saving it?
The other route I've been pursuing is to use a PHP-based file upload
script to bring the files into the server. There are dozens of those
scripts and they all work fine. The problem I have is that these
scripts simply upload a file to a given directory and store it, but
provide no means to identify the source of the file. In my case, for
each JPEG that comes in, those images are associated with specific
records in my database. I haven't figured out how to identify which
record any given JPEG is associated with. Seems that none of these
PHP scripts provide for a way to capture additional information on
the uploaded images. They just store file under its original file
name. This process would be much easier if I could get the Rev CGI to
pull in the image files.
Thanks.

at the beginning and end. I can delete those sections, but I'm
still noticing some extra characters throughout the file. I don't
know why this is and if it can be fixed, but without that, the
routine simply doesn't work. Is there any hope for this method of
capturing image files from a user via a browser?
Thanks.
