Yeah, I know what you mean. Here's another one that doesn't work in IE, but 
it does work in Firefox:
canvas = pid.PILCanvas()
canvas.drawRect(0,400, 500, 0, fillColor=pid.floralwhite, edgeColor=
pid.maroon )
<snip>
# display stuff
f = StringIO.StringIO()
canvas.save(f, format="png")
# does not work in MSIE, that sucks...
return 'data:image/png,' + urllib.quote(f.getvalue())

these are DATA URIs (

so do I now have to change my code because most people use IE? Probably I 
have to :-(

Have to come up with a workaround, go back to the old <input>. I'm
