Erm... please ignore the above!

When my upload notification arrived (after a much longer delay than 
usual, but no matter) it became clear that I had been uploading 
_nothing_ - I've now figured out this was because I'd pasted a relative 
filename (gps/20060113-13.gpx) into the 'file:' field rather than an 
absolute one (/home/cjb/gps/20060113-13.gpx), and it didn't bother to 
tell me there was no file wherever it was looking (I haven't looked into 
whether this is caused by the browser or the site).

On re-uploading with the absolute pathname given, all is well.

Apologies for wasting your time, all, and thanks to whoever took a look 
at the file.
