    refugeeSelectByRecordId();

due to security reasons I researched firefox does not return file location
     so to circumvent this - upload files must be placed in the c:\temp folder.
     Is there a better workaround?

The problem with FireFox is not, not allowing uploads but rather it does not show the path of the uploaded file just the name.  to circumvent this - upload files must be placed in the c:\temp folder
