The Cold Fusion server cannot see the client's machine, not even for the one file.
The file is actually sent to the server by the client's browser as part of a form. The browser is the software that finds the file and uploads it. The server cannot see any files on the client's hard drive. Let's say you did as intended and had the browser send the folder name to the server as a form variable. The server would receive something like "C:\My photos\" The server would try to look in that folder, and not find any photos, since it would only have access to it's own C: drive, not the client's. Does this make sense? Jerry Johnson Web Developer Dolan Media Company >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 03/09/05 03:26PM >>> It will be a folder somewhere on the client's machine...I have no access to it. Just figured there was a way for a user to designate a directory in CF by browsing their machine... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Logware (www.logware.us): a new and convenient web-based time tracking application.
