$tbl_name1="displaydata";


if (isset($_POST['submit']))
{
$fname1=$_POST['sel_file'];

	$chk_ext=explode(".", $fname1);

	if(strtolower($chk_ext[1])=="csv")
	{
		$filedir=$_POST['sel_file'];
		$filedir=addslashes($filedir);
		mysql_query("UPDATE $tbl_name1 SET ShippingDirectory='$filedir' WHERE DataID=1");

		$message="Shipping1 has been updated.";
	}
	else
	{
		$message="*Wrong format of file.";
	}

}

This seems to be a browser issue, not an OS issue. The browser should never return the full path to the file for file inputs.

 

You should, instead, read the value from the temporary file created and stored in the $_FILES array.
