Besides the name, type and size of the uploaded file, I also need the path of the file on the user PC. Does someone know how to retrieve this data, with or without using some special component or script on the client PC to have the path data transmitted? The need for it is quite obvious when one wants to upload a HTML file containing images, saved with e.g. the Explorer browser on the client PC. We want the images as well to be uploaded, as much as possible in an automated way. And if we would know on the server the client PC's path to the HTML file on the PC, then we know also the name of the submap where the imagefiles are located on the client PC, thanks to the way browsers save them. ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/features.file-upload.php Edit Note -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+32722 Delete Note -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+32722&report=yes Reject Note -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+32722&report=yes
