Thats not quite what I mean. The AJAX bit is only there to get a set of co-ordinates that will be passed to PIL to do its stuff. In fact, forget Ajax for now. What i want is a multipart form in the admin section BUT the image uploaded in the first form MUST be available in the second form.
One way I can see of doing this is having a temp table: user uploads master image master image is saved to temp table new image is displayed on next multipart form with the option to crop new cropped image is created from the previous master all temp table is cleared. Would that be a good way of doing it or can you think of another? Cheers for the speedy feedback.
