Thankyou both for your input but why does everyone think this is some huge security issue, its on a secure site, will at least one login required to get to and im using it to update a file that needs to be done about 3-4 times a day. Also if someone wanted to use it to upload files from another's computer, why wouldn't they make there own? Could someone at least give me some idea on how to?

No, you can't do it. It's conceivable some idiotic company might bring out a browser that lets you do it in the future, but I'd hope not.
It's simple: if there was a way to automatically take a file from someone's computer and put it on your server, you could steal anything from them you want. How about their browser password list, for example. It's difficult to imagine how you can't see this is a security issue.
You know all the security bugs that are found every day in modern browsers? The biggie, the worst-case, is that you can read or write to the user's filesystem. If that happens, a patch for the browser is brought out ASAP by throwing more and more monkeys at the problem until the company is less terrified of the bad press.
