I am trying to get not only the original file name on uploads, but also
the original directory on the client machine as well.
The purpose is for users who make a mistake on another part of the form;
when the form is returned for them to complete properly, all of the
correct values are automatically filled in. That's trivial in most
instances, but I'm not finding a solution for file uploads.
This seems like a common need. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance,
Jeff
AFAIK that info is outside the security sandbox of web browsers; just
like you can't resend the file or autopopulate what file you want them
to upload.
only way is to use a third party browser extension or app; java uploader
or such like and you may have some luck.
