[jquery] Full path from file input using jQuery

Well, getting full path is not possible but we can have a temporary path.

Try This:

It'll give you a temporary path not the accurate path, you can use this script if you want to show selected images as in this jsfiddle example(Try it by selectng images as well as other files):-

JSFIDDLE

Here is the code :-

HTML:-

<input type="file" id="i_file" value=""> 
<input type="button" id="i_submit" value="Submit">
    <br>
<img src="" width="200" style="display:none;" />
        <br>
<div id="disp_tmp_path"></div>

JS:-

$('#i_file').change( function(event) {
var tmppath = URL.createObjectURL(event.target.files[0]);
    $("img").fadeIn("fast").attr('src',URL.createObjectURL(event.target.files[0]));

    $("#disp_tmp_path").html("Temporary Path(Copy it and try pasting it in browser address bar) --> <strong>["+tmppath+"]</strong>");
});

Its not exactly what you were looking for, but may be it can help you somewhere.
