If you're brave, then there's $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA, but since you'll then have
to do your own POST-data decoding then beware of getting it wrong.
Just going back to your original post:

> </form>
Are you committed to this layout? "filename.txt" can exist fine as a value,
it's just as a name it's a problem. Can you not send the filename over as a
value in an input type=hidden field, for example?
