I am (very) new to HTML programming, teaching myself as I go. I wonder if someone might be able to assist me with the best way to enable visitors to a web site to upload a file when completing a form.
I know you experts will know this stuff inside out. When you can stop chuckling at what a Dilbert I am, maybe you could add the required coding to my form script following:
<div>
<input type="hidden" name="acctid" id="acctid" value="o54xghdbxrqkvj8w" />
<input type="hidden" name="formid" id="formid" value="533405" />
<input type="hidden" name="required_vars" id="required_vars" value=data removed to meet post limits />
</div>

This is a long form but I though I'd better include it all for you.
One little request, can you please keep the answers simple as I am as conversant in HTML as I am in Swahili!
