I'm not sure how you'd do this with Frontpage, but I can tell you how it's
done on the client-side using JavaScript. You would want to write a
JavaScript function that checks the "value" attribute of the "input
type=file" form field. It would parse the file path, and starting from the
last "." check the file extension. If it wasn't the correct extension, it
would cause the form validation to return false, preventing the submit of
the form.
