What encoding type do you have set on the form?

in theroy this should upload a file - wont do any moving of the file from 
the temp folder tho but i'll assume that your doing that already. if not i 
can post that too.

<form enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="51200">
<input type="file" name="fupload"><br>
<input type="submit" value="Upload">
</form>
