I need to fetch only file name right at the moment user selects any file from the dialog box (click on “Open” button after selecting file or just double click on the file itself).

Is there any event of the file control available that can be fired to fetch the file name once dialog box is closed

    Try this:

    <html>
<head>

<script>

function get_filename(obj) {

    var file = obj.value;
    alert(file);

}

</script>

</head>
<body>

<input type="file" name="file" value="" onchange="get_filename(this);" />

</body>
</html>
