You'd use multipart/form-data, but ONLY the type="file" INPUTs would be in the actual POST data. So your MD5 would be the MD5 of the uploaded file. The rest of your inputs would be in GET data: <form action="whatever.php?input1=foo&amp;input2=bar" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data"> <input type="file" name="whatever" /> </form> You could even use JS to take any other FORM INPUTs and change them to GET parameters and submit a somewhat hacked POST with everything but the file in GET parameters. It won't be pretty... But it might work and be faster than waiting for the Feature Request... -- Some people have a "gift" link here. Know what I want?
