Take the 2-minute tour ×  I have an HTML form and one the pieces
of data we are collecting is a folder location. Right now the
users have to manually input the path. I've been asked to make
this easier. My thought was to provide a file input field, and
have the user select a file in the needed folder, and then use
javascript to parse the full file system path, and populate the
other field. The product owners seemed to like that idea. Since
I have been trying to come up with some javascript to do this,
and haven't been very successful. Any recommendations?
