Has anything been completed as far as a FileAttachment or UploadMechanism 
Plugin ?

UpLoad.php - File Upload Plugin - written by NathanGass
http://phpwiki.sourceforge.net/phpwiki/UploadPlugin

This is a magnificent solution. The admins for my server
approved this as secure from their perspective. There was another
upload script at the phpwiki site that was not. I tried them both
and settled on the Plugin version.

You can try it out here:

Going a little beyond that, I would like the ability to have the uploaded 
files assigned to the page they were uploaded to - something like attaching 
a file to a page and having the page list all the files that are attached 
to it. On a phpwiki that I am working on, we need the ability to assign 
ZIP/PDF files to the page which get updated every week or so (upload new 
copy, delete old copy, update wiki with new information)...

Automatically?
As subpage or as dynamic list of attached files?

This could be a fine extension to UpLoad.
I would just add a
   "* UploadedFileUrl\n"
to the page on a certain parameter.

I am working on something like this at the moment.  May be finished in th=
e=20
next few days.

There are various issues to be addresses, eg should the attachments be st=
ored=20
in the filesystem, or in the DB?  Should users have the ability to delete=
=20
files? etc

Lets say that someone creates a new page (SolarSystem) in phpwiki on their 
website. The ability for the individual to upload a flash animation file 
(SolarSystemInMotion.swf) and 'attach' it to the page would be a benefit. 
The link would appear at the bottom of the page with the file(s) name and 
allow people to download the file by clicking on it. Then, being able to 
edit/delete/create additional links so that when a better SolarSystem 
animation file is produced, he could delete the old file and upload the 
newer file. Does that make sense ?

Yes. Like a blog.
