Ok, thanks for the info. I was not sure, but for any OS with a gui I don't know why they wouldn't.

Most operating systems I use other than Windows don't filter files based on file type. This includes OS X and GNOME on Linux? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Cody Wehunt Sent: Monday, October 08, 2007 8:03 PM To: discussion@acfug.org Subject: RE: [ACFUG Discuss] Browser and File Upload Filter? Thanks that is what i thought. However i disagree with one point. Browsers could Interact with this dialog the same way other applications do; they just dont. The terminology of files of type is windows specific but i believe other oses support this as well but maybe with a different name. -----Original Message----- From: "Tom McNeer" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: discussion@acfug.org Sent: 10/8/2007 5:57 PM Subject: Re: [ACFUG Discuss] Browser and File Upload Filter?

The dialog box is the native OS file dialog, and the browser cannot send it information. Besides, the "files of type" filter is Windows-specific. -- Thanks, Tom Tom McNeer MediumCool http://www.mediumcool.com 1735 Johnson Road NE Atlanta, GA 30306 404.589.0560 ------------------------------------------------------------- Annual Sponsor FigLeaf Software - http://www.figleaf.com To unsubscribe from this list, manage your profile @ http://www.acfug.org?fa=login.edituserform For more info, see http://www.acfug.org/mailinglists Archive @ http://www.mail-archive.com/discussion%40acfug.org/ List hosted by http://www.fusionlink.com ------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------- Annual Sponsor FigLeaf Software - http://www.figleaf.com To unsubscribe from this list, manage your profile @ http://www.acfug.org?fa=gin.edituserform For more info, see http://www.acfug.org/mailinglists Archive @ http://www.mail-archive.com/discussion%40acfug.org/ List hosted by http://www.fusionlink.com ------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------- Annual Sponsor FigLeaf Software - http://www.figleaf.com To unsubscribe from this list, manage your profile @ http://www.acfug.org?fa=gin.edituserform For more info, see http://www.acfug.org/mailinglists Archive @ http://www.mail-archive.com/discussion%40acfug.org/ List hosted by http://www.fusionlink.com ------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------- Annual Sponsor FigLeaf Software - http://www.figleaf.com To unsubscribe from this list, manage your profile @ http://www.acfug.org?fa=login.edituserform For more info, see http://www.acfug.org/mailinglists Archive @ http://www.mail-archive.com/discussion%40acfug.org/ List hosted by http://www.fusionlink.com -------------------------------------------------------------
