This is really more a PHP issue, I can't really find out where PHP stores the local file path. I know it does bc if the CI upload class will get that information. I think the problem is that I don't upload the file unless the other error validation succeeds. I suppose I could capture the text with javascript and submit it as a hidden variable but I don't think I've had luck prefilling file input boxes before. I will do some tests.
