I was using the script on the above page to upload files and I get 403 on my mediatemple grid server.  
(It works fine on localhost)

I tried adding the following to .htaccess:

SecFilterEngine Off  
SecFilterScanPOST Off

…but it gives me Internal Server Error - 500

Any help would be appreciated.  
Thanks
