What you have is:

>>> import albatross
>>> class Ctx(albatross.SimpleContext):
...     def input_add(self, *args):
...         print args
... 
>>> ctx = Ctx('.')
>>> albatross.Template(ctx, '<magic>', '''
... <al-input type="file" name="resume" whitespace>
... ''').to_html(ctx)
('file', 'resume', None, 0)
>>> ctx.flush_content()
<input type="file" name="resume">

What I'd like to see added after that is:

# page module code, inside page_process(), saves the uploaded file
if ctx.req_equals("resume") and len(ctx.locals.resume.value):
    filename = "/home/uploads/resumes/new_file.txt"
    file = open(filename, 'wb')
    file.writelines(ctx.locals.image.value)
    file.close()

Actually, it should be alittle more than that, showing getting the
filename as it was on the client's system - but this is off the top of
my head and I don't remember where that's stored atm (hence the need for
the reference =)

Thanks,
Mike
