uploaded file name

[mailtome]

Hi
Here's what I want:
After uploading the file, I would like to preview the filename and the original path uploaded from the client side and not what is now uploaded to the server..

for example, C:\mydocuments\myfiles\myfile.doc

How can I do this?

Javascript might work... should be something like this

<form action="watever.php" method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data" onSubmit="return getpathof();">
<input type="file" name="fileup">
<input type="hidden" name="getpath">
<input type="Submit" value="Submit">
</form>

<script Language="Javascript">
  function getpathof()
{
  var temp;
  temp = document.getElementById("fileup").value;
  document.getElementById("getpath").value=temp;
 return true;
}
</script>

<?
$clientpath = $_POST['getpath'];
...
?>

I guess this should do the job.. not % sure..

Good Luck
