yeah, yeah. http, i hear ya! the code is a cake walk in asp.net... it is
so easy that I feel like I am doing something wrong, and since macOS ONLY
people are nearing 100% failure rate, I though there would be more to it
than a couple lines of code. is this the code I have to check? do you
think I am missing anything?

<input type="file" id="txbUpload" runat="server"/>
----------------------------------------------------
dim sFile as string = txbUpload.PostedFile.FileName
sFile = GetFileNameWithoutPath()
dim sFullPath as string = "c:\tmp\" & sFile
txtUpload.PostedFile.SaveAs(sFullPath)

thanks,
Paul
