Unfortunately you cannot. It's a read only field because of security reasons. Imagine a programmer was able to fill that in with whatever they want and then do a form.submit(). poof, they could take whatever file they wanted.

Does anyone know of a way to redisplay what was entered in the field where a user browsed to a file to upload and then returns to the form entry screen after submission b/c of validation errors? The user has to rebrowse to the file to upload each time they are returned to the previously filled form entry screen. I don't see any way to add a "value" attribute to the input form field when the type=file.
