I'm having difficulty uploading files from my website. Everything seems to be working fine, until I hit the submit button and get the error message "http 404 page not found". The problem appears to be the "Action" field in the Properties section. Does anyone know exactly what should be entered into this field...I entered home/public_ftp/incoming from my server side but I think that is incorrect...what should be in the Action field?

The action attribute should be the url of the server side script that
copies the uploaded file from the temporary location it gets uploaded to
to a permanent location where you want it saved.
