note 77114 added to function.http-post-fields

I don't understand. What does posting a file do, I can't really grasp that concept? Would it just take the html or text that is returned by that file and send that as a value of an array? But if so, what would be the name of the key to that value? After all you need to post a hash of key->value pairs for the file that your are posting to know where to look don't you? Hopefully I made myself clear, please explain with an email or a note on this manual entry.
