Rob T - 24 Mar 2006 20:15 GMT
I'm trying to figure out a way for a user to be able to select a file name
(on their local hard drive) and upload it to a web server.  That's the easy
part...and I use a standard Input tag with a type=file.  What I would like
to do is also upload a couple of other files automatically.

For example, the users choose c:\myfile.txt.  I would also want to upload
c:\myfile.gif and c:\myfile.jpg.

I would assume this is impossible to do, for security reasons....unless I
wrote and activex component to do it...?
