I'm using the cfinput type=file tag to upload pdfs to the server.
Is there a way in Cold Fusion to, when the file upload / browse dialog
comes up, restrict it to only show pdf files? Or is that an operating
system / java / something else function?
Thanks in advance,
Les
how about cffile
At the risk of exposing my ignorance, isn't cffile a server-side
operation? I'm needing a client side filter, basically.

Yes. There is no way that I am aware of to put a filter on the file
selector box triggered by an input tag.

Only Flash based uploaders can filter the user's choice of file types.
Best you can do is check it after the upload.
(AFAIK) :)

enforce ONLY a certain file

No, I did find that this is only the case when the form type is flash.
I think it a bug.

That's correct. Each field must have a unique name.

Do you know why that is, since a regular input checkbox field does not have
to be unique it's only when I use the format type as flash?

Flash already knows they are different controls and since you can bind

If HTML doesn't have a client-side state, how to radio buttons work?
Seems to me like a cop-out excuse for having made something that's
easy with HTML difficult with flash forms.

This was true for me, I guess the really confusing part was that I did not
