If you want to read the file properties, use DHTML to create an IMG element and assign the src from the input field. This will work with images, though I'm not sure about other file types.
Hope this helps. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mark Smyth" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, May 28, 2004 9:14 AM Subject: RE: [ cf-dev ] Checking image size Hi Thought as much, just wanted to check. Many Thanks Mark -----Original Message----- From: Alistair Davidson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 28 May 2004 08:12 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [ cf-dev ] Checking image size Mark, Short answer - No Javascript runs in the browser, and has no access to the local filesystem, for very sound security reasons. I may be wrong, but last time I checked it was the same situation with Java applets. You can get round these restrictions with an ActiveX control, or by exploiting one or two security holes in Internet Explorer, but I wouldn't recommend it.
