Hi Marc!
I know it's not what you meant, that's why
I said "another suggestion".
Ah, now I get it. I'm sorry for my misinterpretation. :)
The current is_upload philosophy avoids displaying
the file selector
if we cannot detect that uploads are allowed. So if we reverse the
logic, we will avoid displaying the file selector if we detect that
uploads are not allowed, and sometimes (where PHP is < 43000 and
ini_get() is not available), we will display a file selector that
won't work. I think that this is acceptable.
I agree with your notion against a new configuration directive. Just a question:
Haven't there been issues with enabled is_upload, where the form got screwed up
because of the form/form-data enctype attribute? Were there only certain
php-installations affected? I don't remember...

Garvin.
maybe this was the same problem that duplicate fields (Apache config
error), I don't remember if we got confirmation about this.
