I am trying to do something seemingly difficult. I am trying to take the
value from a file input and set the source of an image to the value of the
file input. It seems to only work on Safari. In FF I can do it and then when
viewing the rendered chart I see the image is there with the correct path
and all. For example file:///Users/me/desktop/1234.jpg Is this a security
thing? I can have multiple images from multiple domains on a page but not
one from the users hd. Confusing? Here is a sample of the code:
<img src="" id="preview">
<input type="file" name="test"
onchange="document.getElementById('preview').src = ('file://'+this.value);">
Again, this works in Safari perfectly. In FF I can view the source chart and
it has the correct path. Just not displaying. I even tried using the DOM to
create a new image and plant it on the page. The image is there but not
displayed. Is there a work around for this?
