I want to read the file path from html input type="file" (the entry selected in the file dialog by the user)

<script>   
    function OpenFileDialog(form) {    
        var a = document.getElementById("inputfile").click();
        SampleForm.filePath.value = //set the path here
        document.SampleForm.submit();   
    } 
</script>

<form name="SampleForm" action="TestServlet" method="get">
    <input type="file" style="display:none;" id="inputfile"/> 
    <a href="javascript:OpenFileDialog(this.form);">Open here</a>
    <input type="hidden" name="filePath" value=""/> 
</form>

I want the path of the selected file to be read in my Servlet class How do I get the file path? Can I read it from var a? Or is there any way to directly access the file path from the input type="file" from my servlet?
