Hi!


From a browse/file-button in a html-form, how Do I retrieve the actual name=
including the path to it???

I don't want just filename.doc.


This would returnthe filename only...
$doc =3D $_FILES['frmNewsDocument']['name'];


I want to retrieve c:\program\filename.doc


Best regards
/Gustav Wiberg

That once again is entirely determined by the browser; PHP only gets
what's the the $_FILES['frmNewsDocument'] array.

That said, perhaps in the onsubmit event of the form you could stick
some javascript in that pushed the full path into another hidden form
variable.

Hi!

Yes I thought so, so I did exactly what do you typed.. A little bit of Java=
script did the trick! Thanx again!
