- * handle field values (possibly uploaded from a file)
- *
- * original if-clause checked, whether input was stored in a possible
- * fields_upload_XX var. Now check, if the field is set. If it is empty or a
- * malicious file, do not alter fields contents. If an empty or invalid file is
- * specified, the binary data gets deleter. Maybe a nice new text-variable is
- * appropriate to document this behaviour.
- *
- * security cautions! You could trick the form and submit any file the
- * webserver has access to for upload to a binary field. Shouldn't be that easy! ;)
- *
- * default is to advance to the field-value parsing. Will only be set to
- * true when a binary file is uploaded, thus bypassing further manipulation of $val.
