CGI upload

[Georgy Pruss]

It uploads only a part of the file. Is it a feature of Windows implementation?

<!-- The form-->
<FORM METHOD="POST" ACTION="/cgi-bin/test.py" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<INPUT TYPE=FILE NAME="filename" size=40>
<INPUT TYPE="SUBMIT" VALUE="Upload">
</FORM>


# test.py

print "Content type: text/html"
print

import cgi

form=cgi.FieldStorage()
if form.has_key("filename"):
    filedata=form.getvalue("filename", "")
    assert filedata == form["filename"].value # the same

    print len(filedata), '<br>'  # some 400..800 bytes depending on file :-(

    fstrm = open("test.bin", 'wb')
    fstrm.write(filedata)
    fstrm.close()
