form validation and file uploads

[kennyr]

When validating a form, server side, the standard form elements can generally be forced to hold their previously entered values by assigning the 'value' attribute - is there any way that a file upload element can be made similarily 'sticky' without the user having to re-select the upload file if the form has to be resubmitted due to validation failure?

Thanks

Well to my full knowledge its pretty much not possible. Uploading Files is from the Clients Computer and unless the file is saved like the location on there computer goodluck to you.
