Hello,

Ive found this forum very interesting and helpful thanx to the enthusiastic people out here helping each other in resolving coding obstacles. Well i have come across one problem and any inputs from your end would be appreciated.

I have a Form (something like creating a New Task or Email) which the user needs to enter details in. Now one of the feature i want to have in this form is a File Attachments Feature where-in users can attach a file to the Task/Email and submit the attached file-names to the DB. Ive taken care of the DB submission, File Upload part but came to an obstace where-in -- when the user is entering data into the main form, he should be able to click an "Attach File" button which opens up a File Upload feature where-in he uploads his File Attachments and those file names are passed into a textbox of the Main form (preceding form). Basically this is a Passing Values from Popup Window to Main Window scenario.

Im not proficient in JavaScript hence would appreciate some code examples or ideas throwing light on this.

Thanx in advance for your help !!!

Chris.
