Request fileinfo on drag/drop

Is it possible to request filename and path of a file dragged from eg.
the desktop onto a drop-event-enabled element?
If so, an example will be appreciated.

Cheers

Only if you are running on a trusted page, it *might* be possible in IE.
(I have never done it) But for normal sites, you can only implement
drag and drop in the browser, but not cross application.

Ok, I guess it's impossible.
Thanks
