That argument would work for a patch deferred by a month or two - not for seven years. And it's not really that much of an issue: disallow script-assisted focusing on file input fields, or a) prevent event target from being changed in onKeyDown (this is what MSIE does) + b) prevent scripts from reading file input field value (really no reason for them to). /mz _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
