Hi
I am using input type file to upload a logo for a form using php.
Now i have a preview button and if the user uses the browse button to select
an allowed image (input box contains say c:imagesimage1.jpg) when
previewed the code displays the image and any text in a textbox ok.
Using <input type="submit" value="<< Back"
onClick="javascript:history.back();"> the form keeps all inputs but looses
the c:imagesimage1.jpg
is there a way round this or do i have to live with it?

The fact that the fields stay filled in at all is browser-dependent.
To ensure everyone gets to keep the values, take care of it on the server
side by not using history.back and instead use a link that goes to that page
with URL params (or a form with post, or session vars, or whatever) then use
PHP to fill in the values.

Good idea! I'll simple have it post the data back and as you say have php
fill in the values.
