James Packham	Friday 05 March 2004 3:22:15 am Hi, I've got a little annoying problem: I have a very long input form for one of my classes, of which one of the attributes is an image. If I make a mistake and the template has to be reloaded I 'lose' the location of the file from the browse box. If I just ignore this (simulating a user who might not have noticed) and successfully submit the object without respecifying the image, it (the image) isn't 'attached' to the object! After hunting around in the $http.post variables I'm at a loss to find the text containing the location of the file. Has anyone got any stories/ideas about how they got around this? How is this text stored and how can I display it in the 'browse box'? Can I use some kind of section show to hide the input once the location of the image has been specified? Thanks in advance, James

Hi,

I've got a little annoying problem:

I have a very long input form for one of my classes, of which one of the attributes is an image. If I make a mistake and the template has to be reloaded I 'lose' the location of the file from the browse box. If I just ignore this (simulating a user who might not have noticed) and successfully submit the object without respecifying the image, it (the image) isn't 'attached' to the object!

After hunting around in the $http.post variables I'm at a loss to find the text containing the location of the file. Has anyone got any stories/ideas about how they got around this? How is this text stored and how can I display it in the 'browse box'? Can I use some kind of section show to hide the input once the location of the image has been specified?

Thanks in advance,

James
