Wait, I misunderstood what you were asking. There must be someway to write the scanned file to disk. This doesn't sound like an issue with the browser as along as you are ok to allow users to select which file to upload. The solution of using pipes and such will only work on *nix clients, which I doubt you actually have. _______________________________________________ RLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.rlug.org/mailman/listinfo/rlug
