Javascript Validation of File Field
When validating a text field I know I am looking for value.length > 0 which is fine. When I am trying to validate a File field using the same method it always returns true because it already has some value.
How would I create a validation to ensure something is being selected in a file field?
Thanks for any help.

Try this:
if (form.text.value == '') {
alert('You did not enter anything!')
}

The problem is it always passes something through the form because it's not only a text box but also a submit button which combined creates the input type File.
