Re: File upload using WebWork

Hi!

Thanks for the reply. Well, there might be several reasons why a file has
not been uploaded. For example, the network connection could have failed or
the file size was higher than the limit in the property file. It would be
nice to get to know about such (and other) errors, so that the user can be
informed accordingly. Otherwise, I just have to print an error message: "the
file could not be uploaded", but the reason remains unclear.

Moreover, I think it would be a good idea to update the documentation. (yes,
i know that is a extremely boring work) But at the same time, it's
frustrating for the developer who wants to invoke a method, which then does
not exist.

But apart from that, WebWork is really great to use so far. I give my
credits to all who contributed to it.

Regards,
- Markus
