input file - set default extension

I am using an <INPUT type="file"

I want to set the default file type to be a .doc
i.e. When you click browse, instead of 'Files of type' being 'All File(*.*)'
it will be set to 'Word Documents (*.doc)'
Is this possible?

TIA

Hi Grant,

I don't believe this is possible.

Sorry,
Shane
