1: file upload from mac/windows

When I upload a file from IE, I get the full path name for the file. I have to parse this down to the filename, removing the path. I have never done this for a Mac browser, what does the filename look like when coming from that platform? Should the procedure that does this be in OpenACS, AOLserver, or just my own private library?

Tom, I don't know the answer to your question but I have a Mac, and can do some test uploads for you so you can see what the results are if that will help.

Okay, here is the link to test uploading. I'll get an email of your the output, so no need to report back to me.
