I need just the path of the file on the server using a browse-like feature similiar to browsing for the install location when installing a program on your computer. I know that multipart/form-data will allow you to browse, but that is for uploading a file. I just need the path to a browsed file. Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance!
 
Thanks for the suggestions. I have looked into using the upload feature, but I don't need to upload anything, I just need to get the path of a directory that the user will browse for. I want a browse button (similiar to that used when uploading a file), but I just need it to "grab" the path. To be even more specific and difficult, I need the path to a directory, not a file. When browsing using the upload method, it looks for a file and won't "grab" the path of just a directory. Anyone have ideas?
