With the following form in my template

<form enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post" action="/submit/">
<p><label for="file">File: </label>
{{ form.code }}
<input type="SUBMIT" value="Submit">
</p>
</form>

and the appended view code, I get the desired form with text box,
Browse... and Submit buttons. But when
browse for a plain text file and hit Submit, I get the
HttpResponseBadRequest response and the print statements flagged with
##  below print the following to the server console.
<MultiValueDict: {'code': [{'content': '<omitted>', 'content-type':
'application
/octet-stream', 'filename': 'README.txt'}]}>
{'code': None}

Why is clean_data == {'code': None} ?

-------------------------------
class SubmissionForm(forms.Form):
    code = forms.Field(widget=forms.FileInput, required=False,
                       label=_('File'), help_text=_('Upload a file'))

def submit(request):
    if request.method == 'POST':
        new_data = request.POST.copy()
        new_data.update(request.FILES)
        print request.FILES##
        form = SubmissionForm(new_data)
        if form.is_valid():
            clean_data = form.cleaned_data
            print clean_data##
            if clean_data['code']:
                submission = Submission()
                submission.name = code.filename
                submission.save_code_file(code.filename, code.content)
                context = Context({'length': str(len(code.content)),
                                   'name': code.filename})
                return render_to_response('submit/submitted.html',
context)
            else:
                return HttpResponseBadRequest('Bad file')
        else:
            return HttpResponseServerError('Bad form')
    else:
        context = Context({'form': SubmissionForm()})
        return render_to_response('submit/index.html', context)
