I want to force my user to only search in a particular folder when using the fileupload control. Is that possible?

A:
Unfortunately not. The standard web browser file upload control can't be restricted in this way.

Do you want to hint a path to the user?

A:
No, it's totally up to the client, as long as it's pure HTML, and not, say, ActiveX implementation.

How do you know that folder exists?
If it's a network share perhaps a better idea would be to have the webserver itself create a listing of all the files and folders at that location and let the user navigate to the appropriate file?

i like that idea. I'm gonna try and create a modal popup that has a list of thumbnails to select from that file.
