Know the path of an image

[fcjm]

Does anybody have any ideas on how could I get the full path of the image which is located in a local computer? I used an input box and its type is file. When I browse for an image, I can get its name. But what I want is to be able to preview the image by using its path. Any ideas? Thanks

<form method=post action='some.php' onSubmit='this.file_location.value = this.file_loc.value; this.file_loc.value = &quot;&quot;;'>
<input type=file name='file_loc'>
<input type=hidden name='file_location'
</form>

should do the trick --BB

You can't do that with PHP. When uploading files via HTTP, the browser does not transmit the name of the file. //Daniel
