Right, but if for some reason your File browse window can find the file, but then when it puts the path into the filefield textbox, maybe the browser is getting tripped up on something in the filename when it's in a formfield. It just sounds like from the posts I read on a couple of boards yielded from a quick search seemed to point at the fact that for one reason or another, the browser was not actually sending any data for the file and it seems to go back to the path. Perhaps there are invalid characters or something.

Apparently, if you >specify an incorrect path or name in the file upload field (try typing >one in by i don't think it's a file extension issue because the file i'm attempting to upload does have an extension. i don't think it's a Mac issue because I've received this error as well from users on Win2k and WinNT, using IE. The file that i reproduced this with was selected, not typed in. Still stumped, but i think it's just a file system limitation on the Windows server side that i'll have to trap in a custom error message. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Find out how CFTicket can increase your company's customer support efficiency by 100% http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=49 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:189580 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
