Ok, well slightly off topic but a continuation of the original problem, does anybody know if it is possible to upload a file through a form but without the file upload dialogue box, ie php could get a local file path from database, and then through a form, this file is uploaded and then I could get it with $_FILES var using PHP? Basically I would be eliminating the users choice of what file to upload and replacing it with a pre set filepath. I know this is probably going to be a javascript so apologies, but if anybody knows if it is possible or not, that would be great. Thanks in advance
