Thanks Paul, I have it working now, but I will look into the more
elegant solution. The only question now is when do I send the email.
There is a delay after clicking the submit button, the length of which
depends on the size of the image file, so I really don't want to make
it longer. I have thought about putting the code on the success page to
actually send the email. I am trying to consider the possible events
that may prevent it from getting done.

If I put it on the next page but don't use sessions, I can have it just
search the directory and send whatever it finds, then delete it. But
what happens if two people are doing it at the same time? Is that
likely enough to worry about? Would putting it on the same form handler
have enough of an effect to justify moving it to the other page?
