CFILE

Hey there, I had a related question to this. I am using a <input type="file">
in a form for a <cffile> on processing page and I was wondering, is there a way
to manipulate the default folder that opens when "Browse" is clicked on the
form page by the user? For example, I know the general location where they
will the files they upload will typically be so is there a way to check for
existance of the typical path, and if found, start the Browse from that
location rather than the last used directory?

Thanks!

Hi, To read the file u have to save the file on the server temporarily or
permananetly . <cffile action='UPLOAD' filefield='FileName'
destination='Give the path of the folder where u are interested to store the
file'> Then using <cffile action = 'read' file = 'full_path_name'
variable = 'var_name' charset = 'charset_option' > read the file which u
uploaded. Thanks -Raaga
