File uploading is the process of sending an arbitrary file from a client machine to the server. The easiest and most convenient way to upload a file is to use an RFC1867-enabled browser such as Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0+, Netscape 3.0+, or Internet Explorer 3.0 with the upload add-on. Browser-based uploading is performed via an HTML form with the attribute ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data". This form must also contain one or more INPUT TYPE=FILE items with which the user specifies local files to be uploaded.
