hi,

id like to know if there is a way to filter or specify what type of files id 
like uploaded to my server. for example, if i make a form to upload image 
files, when i click browse there are 2 fields one that'll store the file 
name(of the file selected) and the other filetype (usually say all types) what 
id like is to specify in file type : *.jpg,*gif etc. is this possible?

thanx.

You can use accept atribute of <form> element. I'm not sure why it's a form atribute, if it was part <input type="file"> would be better. But I don't know of any browser respecting this.


accept = content-type-list [CI]
This attribute specifies a comma-separated list of content types that a server processing this form will handle correctly. User agents may use this information to filter out non-conforming files when prompting a user to select files to be sent to the server (cf. the INPUT element when type="file").
