I want to get the file path of a selected file in CodeIgniter. Mainly for validation purposes. I'm using $_FILES['file']['name'].But it only gives the file name. I want to get the full path.
As an example, I want to upload a file which is located in my desktop. So once I selected that file, I should be able to get the file path like this "C:\Desktop\file.doc". I want this because there are several file uploads in the same form and I want to validate those uploads before it goes to the database.
