Guy,

This is simply not permitted for <input type=file> HTML elements. If it
were possible, it would allow malicious site operators to read files off
users' local machines and networks.

For pure display purposes, you can fake it by either collapsing the text box
portion of the <input type=file> element down to minimum width or floating
an <input type=text> element over the text box portion. Getting the
formatting right for the first of these two approaches might take some time,
particularly if you need to support multiple browsers.

HTH,
Nicole
