file input, fakepath?

[tryggs]

hey guys, I'm building a very interesting project using sveltekit and supabase and I now need to upload files to supabse so I am using <input type="file" bind:value={fileField}> to "get" the file that I want to upload to supabase.

the problem is that the value of fileField is "C:\fakepath..." rather than the actual file path. after doing a bit of research I learned that it is a security future and that is not sveltes problem BUT I couldn't find any solution to the problem that is suitable with svelte or sveltekit. Does anyone have any ideas or has experienced the same problem?

thanks in advance,
