Thanks for the leads; I just watched the restful api's video and have
been reading up on doing this with xmlrpc.
In the meantime, based on your first comment, here is a controller
that does work, at least through the browswer:
----------------
def add_photo():
form = SQLFORM(db.photolog)
if request.post_vars:
db.photolog.insert(title=request.vars.title,
photo=db.photolog.photo.store(request.vars.photo,
request.vars.photo.filename),
photo_data=request.vars.photo.file.read())
return dict(form=form)
----------------
