I have an input tag, type="file"

I'd like to pre-set it with a value eg.

<input type="file" value="dog.jpg">

which would make an input box appear, with a browse button. Inside the box would be the value "dog.jpg"

can't get it to work - do I take it its not possible ?

 

Hello

I believe it is not allowed.

Steve.

 

cheers Steve

 

Nope, you can't do it. It's one of those security restrictions that make life so easy

 

As above, you definitely can't do this. I had a client that wanted to do it, it would be a security hole in HTML if it was possible.
