[mod_python] subscribe Uploading file troubles...

Do you get the same if you remove:

  value=""

from options for file upload form input element.

Sorry, I don't do file upload stuff very often so just comparing it to:

  http://webpython.codepoint.net/mod_python_publisher_file_upload

and I see that as a difference.

BTW, what version of mod_python are you using? Hope you aren't using a
really old version and following documentation for newer version.
