File Upload Validation Broke

Great, thanks Leo.

I'll give the way you've done it a try.

I had thought I had it working at some point a few days ago (not done the way you have it now, though)... but it wasn't the main focus of attention at the time, and when I came back to work on this portion of the code again, it was broke... and I can't be sure whether it was the code that was working, or the red wine.

As an aside, I see you have a helper('form') fetish... and there's probably no harm in that, though, if you have a look in the user manual (under Form Helper), it says this: If you use any of the form helper functions listed on this page, and you pass values as an associative array, the form values will be automatically escaped, so there is no need to call this function. Use it only if you are creating your own form elements, which you would pass as strings.
