Hi all,

I'm trying to upload files using Curl to a Djangobased form. ((I'm using
Django v1.1, but also tested with the development version). The form is
very simple:

<form name="receiver" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data"
action="/receiver/">
<input type="file" name="data" />
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="go" /
</form>

I try to upload files using the information in section 4.3 of the docs
using:

curl -F data=@<filename goes here> -F submit=go http://<my submit url>

but then no file is uploaded. If I try to post the same info using perl and
LWP, or a browser displaying the form above, I do receive the file in the
framework. Could anyone point me at how to upload a file using curl
correctly, including the name of the upload field?. The file I try to upload
is just plain text. I'm running Apache/WSGI to serve the Django pages,
however I get the same result using other server combinations.
