hmm, good idea, but the only access I have to the remote machine is ftp. Can't put a script on it. I am getting the feeling that I actually have to move the file(s) from the user's machine to my server and then transfer them to the FTP site? I was hoping there would be a way to transfer directly from the user to the remote FTP site. But now that I think about it, I guess probably not. so the trick would be to let the form upload them to /tmp and then move them to the remote site. Takes twice as long. :( I'm talking about 10-15 MB at a time while the user waits for confirmation. That's a long wait (even moving it once).
