I created a class named MultipartForm that can be used w/Http(s)Client. It allows one to do file uploads. I know this will be of use to others as the question has come up on the forum a few times. What I don't know is the best way to share it or get feedback on it. Here's a sample use:

MultipartForm form;
form.Set("name", "John Doe");
form.Set("age", "18");
form.SetFile("bio", "mybio.txt", LoadFile("mybio.txt"));
form.SetFile("avatar", "me.jpg", Base64Encode(LoadFile("me.jpg")), "base64");

HttpClient http("http://localhost/upload.cgi");
http.ContentType(form.GetContentType());
http.Post(form.ToString());

That's basically it. In the end it creates a properly formatted multipart/form-data submission.
