File navgation

[witham]

Hi I have a web application I am building and I would really like to navigate to a file so that this file path is subsequently rendered in a php script table as a link to the file.

I have been reading alot about file upload but I don't think this is what I need as I only want to show the link where the file is and not actually upload it!

 

This is the existing script:

 

</select></td></tr>

<tr><td class="style8">Product Name:</td>
<td class="style8"><input type text name="ProdName"></td></tr>
<tr><td class="style8">Product File Path:</td>
[color=red]<td class="style8"><input type text name="FilePath"></td></tr>[/color]
<tr><td class="style8">Product Equivalent:</td>
<td><input type text name="ProdEquiv"></td></tr>

 

The FilePath is the variable I want to pass to the script that handles the displaying of the link:

 

{

// $row["fieldname"] returns the content for the field in the current row

   	echo "<tr><td>" .$row["MANNAME"].  "</td>";

   	echo "<td>"   .$row["prodtype"].  "</td>";

   	echo "<td>"   .$row["FilePath"].  "</td>";

echo "<td><a href=\"http://localhost/".$row["Compsheet"].".pdf\">".$row["Compsheet"]."</a></td>";

   	echo "<td>"   .$row["prodequiv"].  "</td></tr>";



}


// close html table tag
echo "</table>\n";

 

I would be grateful if anyone could give me some assistance.

 

Thanks
