Hi ,

I have the requirement like in

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

 <html>

<body>
 
<form action="form_action.asp">

First name: <input type="text" name="FirstName" value="" /><br />

Last name: <input type="text" name="LastName" value="" /><br />

<input type="file" value="Submit" focus="false"/>

In this i want to manually enter the path, instead of clciking browse button.

Could you please help to fix this

this seems to be a security feature introduced with IE8: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/ie/archive/2...m-changes.aspx

Hi ,

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

<input type="file" value="Submit" focus="false"/>

if we execute this we will have text box and browse button.

Here user can't able enter the path manually instead he needs click the browse button to find the path to upload the date

Note : We can able to enter text in IE 7 but i got the problem in I8

They can always just click browse and type in the path in the dialog that comes up.

Yes, but as @gits said, it's a security measure that was implemented in IE8 to disallow it.
