Just an update on this. I know have "camera web server" working. This time the upload etc went without a hitch. I think the little bit of experience I now have makes it easier. Thanks again for the help.

I though I might try these if v 1.0.2 does not work again. I have not tried to upload again but I think I'll go back ...

@ESP Spirte,
Thanks for your PM and the explanation therein. I'm still not authorised to reply via the PM hence this post. I have now overcome the problem I outlined on that post so it's now not needed. Thanks for letting me know what had happened as I wondered where it had gone.
