I am trying to upload images - in fact an image path - from a PC. I use the <input > tag: <INPUT NAME="addpic" TYPE="file"> which nicely gives an input textfield and Browse button! This gives me, in the input box, eg: c:\pics\subdir\pic1.jpg

a web browser doesn't even give you this information!

The input tag does give the local path. [snip]

* I apologize on my last message, I didn't change the field to a reply-to and it was a Cc - though I think the mailing list was kind enough to only post it once * If by local, in your example, you mean it gives you "pic1.jpg" - then I will agree. No browser I've ever seen sends "C:\pics\subdir\pic1.jpg". It will *display* that to the user, but it doesn't submit the local path, it just uploads the file and gives the filename.
