how to get a real path of a file using input type="file" i.e :
HTML Code:
<input type="file" id="fileData"/>
when user click on brows button, he will select a file, so i wanted a path from where he selected. Through Jquery (or any possible way ) if i get a value of 'filedata' i.e:
Jquery :
var filename = $('#fileData').val();
it gives like this C:\fakepath\SO_Status.xlsx
but what i realy wanted is path of a file and not data inside a file / no need to upload a file C:\filesFolder\SO_Status.xlsx (assuming 'SO_Status.xlsx' file present in fakepath)
