Thanks Tarek, in fact I just need a simple thing: the user upload a text file which I then parse and update a database. I also need to let the user upload images which I then put in a folder (this will probably be done with ftp). So my main concern is to let the user upload text files, which I don't need to save. I'm sure I only need a simple thing to do but I don't know the techniques. Also if there's no simple way in ajax, I don't mind going another way, I still need to know how to do it though. Stéphane

What your precise use case ? Tarek _______________________________________________ Zope3-users mailing list Zope3-users@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope3-users
