  What exactly are you trying to do?
  
  Is this a form to upload a file?

  Yepp its a form to upload a file....
  When you enter the input="file" you get a textfield and a browse-button.
  When you browse the file you want the path to that file is written in the textfield...
  I want to have a default value in that textfield.....and still give the user the option of browsing another file....

  if that's the question, it's a simple "input" kinda question.
  
  a normal field would go like this: and have googoo as the default.
  
  just try

  I don't think you can do it. Reason. Well if you can put a default value in this field and you have a onload="submit()" then you can put any file from the clients machine to your server without them knowing. Just a guess.
