I've managed to fix a bug I was having revolving around Safari
WOFileUpload & Hidden Divs and thought I'd share. Unfortunately it's
a hack involving Javascript but it works.
The problem itself manifests itself when you have a WOForm with a
WOFileUpload which when it is submitted has the WOFileUpload in a
part of the page that is hidden. On the first Submit everything will
be fine, if you submit again you get a dreaded "No form data left for
WOFileUpload"
It seems related to this

and this

(the solution of binding enctype to a local string type did nothing
for me)
So heres the Javascript, it's done in Jquery to keep it simple
<!-- A Crazy fix for the Safari WOFileUpload in a hidden div Bug -->
<script>$(document).ready(function(){
if ($.browser.safari) {
//Show any hidden divs that contain a WOFileUpload when a form
is submitted
$("input[@type=submit]").click( function(){
$("div.wofileupload:hidden").each(function(){
//Push it off the screen so people can't see it.
$(this).css("position","absolute");
$(this).css("left","-1000em");
//Make it visible to fix the WOFileUpload missing form data
exception
$(this).show();
});
});
}
});
</script>
