File Picker For Input


I posted something about this originally in the javascript forum, but I think it would have been better suited here. Guessing php for the file/directory browsing and js to pass the value to the form. I have a form and on that form is an input field that needs a path & filename. I'm afraid the user will mistype when entering, and would like for them to beable to use a file picker to browse the directories and select the file, passing that value to the input field.

File Picker
I am needing a pop-up window to select a file and have its path and file name pasted in a form field. Very similar to a date picker, but for files within a network. Does anyone know any javascript or PHP code that I can use ?

Date Picker!
Im in the middle of a building my 1st Php Website (just for education ) and need Help with a Datepicker, What i need is either Javascript or an Easy Way to do it in php..

I did make a Quick Pull Down menu that put in the next 7 Days but I dont know if its dreamweaver or what but when i tried to copy it to another page it got corrupted & the php and shows the actual php code and not the Resulting Date?

so although my scruffy attempt works im sure there is a better way using a real Datepicker..

what i need is a Picker that shows this in the forms box when date selected:-
Day - Date - Month Year ie ("Saturday 4th Feb 2006").

Input Type = File
If an input field of type 'file' is left blank, what is returned as the varible? I'm having a problem, I have two file fields and want to be able to do the following:

1. Put in the $file1_name and $file2_name (if there was a file uploaded) into a database so I can reference it later.

2. Copy the uploaded file (if, in fact, there was a new one uploaded) to a directory.

3. Later on, if someone wants to edit that entry and wants to upload a new file for the 2nd slot, or 1st for that matter or delete a file, it should do that with no difficulty.
I'm running into problems when it reaches the 'if' clause. I've tried:

if ($var){
and
if($var != ''){

and no matter what, for some reason these blank file fields alwasy evaluate true to my if statements, so I get an error like 'can't open file 'none' for blah blah'.

$_POST Behavior From Input=submit Vs Input-type=button
I have been trying to solve an annoying behavior with PHP (I think).
Maybe some of you have encountered the same and have some ideas.

I have an html form and I use an <input type="button"> element with
the onClick event that calls a javascript funtion. Once the script's
content has been processed, I execute the form.submit() directive.

I would like to combine the html form and the PHP script into one, and
use action="<?php echo($PHP_SELF) ?>".

When the html form has <input type="button" name="theButton"
value="thisisthetrigger" onclick="doThis(this.form)">but PHP cannot
'read' the value of $_POST["theButton"] after form.submit().

If I substitute the <input type="button"> for <input type="submit">
then PHP reads the value just fine. Some may argue to just use the
latter option, but that will cost me a trip back to the server to
basically do a lot of validation that can be very easily accomplished
on the client side.
