send files and text (form)

[Jochen Fuhrmann]

hi, i want to use a form to send text and a file, but i have to use
\"multipart/form-data\" as enctype to send the file (not that i know what
\"multipart/form-data\") means. can i
send text with this enctype too, or do i have to specify another enctype
somewhere?
