mutation of $_FILES for wp_handle_upload

    Greetings,

    I hope this is the right place to post this. If not, please let me know where this would be more appropriate.

    I am working with wordPress. I have a template with a form that invokes <input type=”file” > and then submits to a PHP script to make sure the users uploaded a valid file.

    I’d like to use a file on the server instead, so I have been trying to mutate the $_FILES array information to point to a file on the server instead of one that the user uploads.

    I’m not sure if I should be mutating this array inside the form before the user clicks the [done] button or if I should do this in the PHP script that handles the form. I wish HTML had a type=”local-file” though. Any help would be appreciated and I would even pay for a successful resolution as this is for a respectable employer’s web page.

    Regard,
    Tim
