I can answer only part of your question.

Uploaded files are "ZPublisher.FileUpload" objects which
you can find in the REQUEST object under the form field
name. They have a "read" method returning the content
as a string.

Placing the string into a text field should be straight forward
(same way you did it up to now).

I do not know, how MySQL wants to receive BLOB values, though.
