Retrieving a file after clicking Browse the full path shows in the text box but the formvar does not have the full path. How can I get the full path included with the filename in the formvar?

<head>
<title>Browse File</title>

<script>
function fileName(){
alert(document.getElementById("fileName").value);
}
</script>
</head>

<body>

<input type="file" id="fileName">
<input type="button" value="test" onclick ="fileName();"/>
</body>

This gives the full path to the file selected
