upload - <input type=‘file’> for IE gives full path, need file name only

Question

When perform uploading from IE browser, that my backend(org.apache.commons.fileupload) gets full file path.

For other non-IE browsers it gets filename and it's OK because of security.

How to get filename only from input for IE?

Is it possible to do on UI, because I think it's not very graceful to edit apache lib.

Maybe , some parameter exists for input field?

I can do it on server, but interested in UI approach.

There is also an IE option under:

• Internet Options
• Security tab
• In "Internet" or "Intranet" click on Custom Level
• In the Security Settings scroll down until you see “Include local directory path when uploading files to a server” and disable it.
• Click OK on Internet Options window and refresh.
