Try using an <INPUT TYPE="FILE", and use some javascript to copy it's value to an <INPUT TYPE="HIDDEN"> on submit. You could also clear the file input with javascript, and that might avoid the unnecessary file upload. > Also, loading the file on click: is there a way to do that in CF, or > should I be looking at that as a browser function? <a href="#related_file_1#">#related_file_1#</a> Just tested that, it works quite nicely in IE, which converted it to a file:// url. However, Firefox did not. Perhaps you could manufacture a valid file:// url somehow.. I tried a few different things in firefox but they didn't work. Or maybe you don't care about non-IE browsers. Good luck! Hope this helps.
