Hi all,
i have file input field in a form like this:
<input name="isbn" type="text" size="25" value="<?php echo
$_POST['isbn'] ?>" />
<input name="image" type="file" size="25" value="<?php echo
$_FILES['image']['name'] ?>" />
when i press "submit" button, the same page gets loaded... if my
$_POST['isbn'] is empty, i want to have the file path on "file input
field" to redisplay on that same field... it's possible in text input
field but i don't know of a way to do it in file input fields...
Any suggestions?
Thanx
Ben

File input fields are read-only. There is no way, through either HTML,
Javascript, PHP, etc.. to give them a default value. This is because if
it were possible, it would be a security risk as people could create a
form that automatically inserts the path to a file on your computer,
then automatically submits the form to the server which would mean they
can steal your files. The best you could do is have a 'Previous entry:
' field either above or below it that people could copy/paste into the
file input.

It was possible and still is in some older browsers.

And some recent ones. Opera 7.10 (yes, I will upgrade
presently), for example.

Hi,
In the file field <input type="file" name="file1">, can I modify the button
"Browse..."?
I want to hide the file field but show a button like "Open". When I click on
this button, it catches a file, and use onchange even to upload this file.
thanks for any idea.

Hi All,
I found the best pure ASP code to upload a file to either server and/or MS Access Database.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:
