Re: decoding base64 data on client/browser?To: NULL Date: 3/6/2006 8:18:00 AM Does this mean you have no information that can help with the issue actually at hand? Or, are you suggesting that I don't base64 encode the file before sending it, and just send the binary file "as is?" The reason is, an XML field cannot contain bindary data. You have to assume that a binary combination will occur that will cause the XML to appear malformed. Thanks Peter! Please let me know if you have any suggestions. -b "Peter Flynn" wrote: > Brandon wrote: > > My browser app sends a request to the server for a binary file.
