    I think there's security reasons why it can't be done. If it could be done it would just be $('#fileinput').val(); Commented Sep 25, 2010 at 13:21

jQuery("input[type=file]").val(); just for the filename not the entire path.

You can't. Only filename can be read, not fullpath. This restriction is because of security.
