If you are trying to get your 'visitor' to upload a file (?), then couple of 
changes to your html:

<form action="addFile" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input type="file" name="id" size="40" />

And, in your script file you should be using manage_addFile (google for 
details if you need them)


If you are not trying to upload a file, then we need some more information 
as to what you are trying to accomplish.
