Aha, but what about spaces in folders leading up to that filename? I
don't mind those, since I only end up with the file, not the entire
local path. Which was why I did the split + last() trick. A file field
reports its value to JavaScript as the entire root-relative path to
the file on the user's computer in some browsers (Safari for sure).
