XForms pre validate upload

Hi All,

I'm collecting user data, could be 1 to n
rows.....each row has an input
box that the user can specify either a directory or
file. I would first
like to collect this data, then show it to the user,
then upload the
data they specified. Is there a way I can validate
that the specified
file / dir exists before I ask XForms to upload the
actual data to the
server?

Thanks,
Josh

Josh,

You would be using the file upload control: <xforms:upload>. The
control would make sure that you can only select file that exist on
your machine. This means that won't need to do anything to get the
behavior you expect.
