Unless either someone develops a wonderful (i use the term *very* loosely) exploit or I misunderstand what you're trying to do here, there is no way to do what you're trying to do. Neither Javascript, Flash, nor Java (unless the user's insane and sets up their JVM to do this) can automatically read/serialize/change the value of a field to a local file. For very obvious security reasons, the only way to upload a file with a web browser is for the user to actively select the file they want, and then to send that in a POST request (GETs will not work as you cannot serialize the file data).
