I may be offbase here, but could it be related to the idea that DOM
will restrict any programmatic attempt to set the FILE UPLOAD control
(type="file") file name values?
If so, this was a security issue that was addressed long ago. A
control type="file" is designed to be a manual input by the user. DOM
will ignore any javascript attempt to set this value.
Does this related to your issue?
