Passing local files values to JFileUpload to Upload.

[VeVas]

Hi!

Is it possible to pass local filepaths to JFileUpload and then make JFileUpload handle the uploading?

i.e. I have a HTML-from with a normal fileselector/input, and when the user submits this form it passes the filenames to JFileUpload, and it starts uploading?

No, JFileUpload does not allow upload starting from JavaScript because it could be a security hole.
Someone could hide applet and steal files on en-user computer.
We can provide such feature but as a customization only.

But is it possible to trigger the file selection dialog via JavaScript? That would be very nice. It would allow us to visually integrate the applet better in the surrounding user interface.

For instance a browseFiles() JavaScript function?
