The button element produces an HTML input element that has type attribute 'file'. The input element represents a file-choose dialog. When the restful_submit element is clicked, the chosen file will be uploaded to the server. To fetch the content of the uploaded file, You first have to get the request-bridge by calling 'wf_context:request_bridge()'; after that you have to query for the uploaded file by searching the elements returnd by 'post_files()'.
