<input type="file"> prevent user input

[MartinDurant]

I am new to javascript and am using it just for form validation at the moment.

Can I prevent a user from entering text into the text box part of a "file" type input? I want to ensure that the filename is correct by forcing the user to use the browse part of the control.

Is this possible?

Thanks

Martin.

Just add 'readonly' attribute to your input tag that'll solve your problem. Badrinath Chebbi

A little too effective. I cannot use the Browse button now. Is there a halfway house that locks the text box, but allows use if the Browse button?

Thanks.
