Javascript :Access Denied Error

3 New Member
Hi,

I have an HTML form with a browse button for file upload. If in the text I directly type the file name then:
1. If I type full path, e.g d:\abc.pdf, then hitting submit works fine.
2. If I type just the file name, e.g abc.pdf, then hitting submit hangs the browser. Javascript error says : Access denied.
This problem is occuring in IE7. Works fine with firefox. I tried changing the browser setting like this : Tools>Internet Options> Security>Custom Level>Miscellan eous>>Access data source across domain : Prompt. It didnt change anything.

I know what the problem is, but I dont know how to solve this. At least the browser should not hang because of javascript error. I do have backend validation for this file. I just want to escape javascript error.

Thanks,
Shishir

the page doesnt exist at all.
Even if it does, i get the same error in both case(same directory/different directory).

So in all case, I am getting this same error.

What do you mean, the page doesn't exist? By page, I meant the HTML page containing the input file element.

I actually meant the 'file' to be uploaded, not the 'page'.

I can't reproduce this error, but the file name should be selected using the Browse button. You can prevent users from entering into the file input box, if you want.

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents.
