      $path = $_SERVER["SCRIPT_FILENAM E"];
      $path = substr($path, 0, strrpos($path, "/")+1);

          Dear McKirahan,

          i need the client side path,not the server.if i choose a file from
          desktop it should give the path.

          $_FILES only give the filename,i need the full path.

          can you help me in this...

          Thank you for your help,

          Regards
          Irfan

              The browser doesn't send this, and rightly so, there is no way to
              determine where the file came from when uploading using only HTML & PHP.
