Convert it to base64 and store it in a standard text element. With
MSXML 4, it seems to work up to about 500k bytes or so and then bad
things happen. :-)

If you need to read a file into an XML element from a web page, there
are articles on the web that demonstrate how to do it using ADO
Streams in JavaScript, which has certain advantages over posting form
data.
