javascript to check filepath

468750Apr 22 2009 — edited Apr 22 2009

Hi,

I'm wanting to make sure that my users don't enter any old text into a file browse item.

I tried entering "readonly" in the "HTML Form Element Attributes" but this then disables the browse button of the item (well it disables it in IE6 but not in Firefox 3).

I tried setting a javascript call to a function on the upload button, where the function searched the file browse item value with the intension of checking it against a regular expression. But the file browse item

alert(document.getElementById("P500_FILE").value)

only seems to return the file name and not the full path.

Can someone tell me how to return the file path?

Thanks in advance,
Gus..
