The problem appears only with existing directories.
With >=IE3.0 and >=NN4.01 on NT and PHP3 3.0.5
on Linux, PHP3 returns "none". with NN4.5 on
Linux it hangs after Submitting.

Submitting an existing directory?  I don't understand what that means.
When you upload something PHP assigns it a temporary filename that
is guaranteed not to clash with anything.  Please explain the problem in
more detail.

It sounds as though the user is trying to either:
A) Upload a whole dir
or
B) hardcode the name, rather than using tempnam() (or whatever)

I am closing this until more info avail.

this is a Netscape-specific problem
and not related to PHP at all
