My stupidity really pays off in the sense that I end up working for a long time on simple problems, and then when I finally solve them it feels like I am some kind of genius because, well, the problem must really have been hard for me to work on it for so long!

Follow that?

Anyway, I believe I have the OS X client ftp uploading script now working. At least I slightly impressed Dave with it. The script is an icon that sits on my desktop. Any file (or files) I drag onto the icon are FTP'd to the dmtmusic upload server (which can now handle all media types, not just music.) No connecting. No signing in. No hassles. Just drop 'em and they upload.

I think I could just email this script to other OS X users if anybody wants it. I'll be curious to see if that works. So let me know.

I ended up doing it completely in Applescript so it should be very portable across OS X machines (doesn't rely on Apache and PHP like my first attempt.)
