I've found this approach to work well.
<HEAD>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!-- Begin
function ParseFileName()
{
SplitThisStr = document.FORM_NAME.FILENAME.value;
// create array from delimited string
SplitArray = SplitThisStr.split("\\");
// how many items in array
LastIteminArray = SplitArray.length;
// get the file name
JustFileName = SplitArray[LastIteminArray-1];
// set the hidden input value
document.FORM_NAME.JustTheFileName.value = JustFileName;
}
// End -->
</script>
</HEAD>
<form name="FORM_NAME" action="MEWSPLITTEST.cfm" method="post" >
file name<input type="file" name="FILENAME" value="" size="50"
maxlength="50" onChange="ParseFileName()"><br>
<input type="hidden" name="JustTheFileName" value="">
<input type="submit">
</form>
