A lot of websites let you upload either from a file on your hard drive or from a link on the web. Most of the time this is done by having two different inputs: One for a file and the other for a URL. If there were some type of input like "upload' which will allow for any complete input. Something like file:///home/eitan/file_to_upload.pdf or http://example.com/file.pdf or ftp://user:password at example.com/file.pdf It would then be the server's job to fetch the file unless the user passed it a file:// scheme it which case the file would be provided by the UI. -- Eitan Adler
