INPUT TYPE=FILE... Database retrieval 1

[nphani]

Hi Friends,
I have a <INPUT TYPE=FILE...> which should show database value of the previously stored file path. I give it as:

<input class=&quot;regtext&quot; type=&quot;file&quot; name=&quot;smallimage&quot; value=&quot;<%=CStr(Replace(rsProduct.Fields(&quot;SmallImage&quot, &quot;~&quot;, &quot;'&quot)%>&quot;>

But the value doesnot show up in the file element. I do get the value from the database, but is not being shown. What is the attribute to use to show the file?

The probem is that there is no &quot;value&quot; attribute for input type=file, as that would be a security concern. The issue is that you could easily force upload on documents that the user doesn't want you to upload, thus the user is the only one that can select the file.
