This depends on User-Agent. Internet Explorer queries the registry (MRU
values) looking for the last open directory.

There's no way to do this in PHP or plain HTML (w3 compilant) and probably
you will need to write an ActiveX plugin (which will sucks if you have a
Linux or Firefox user);

This because you can't query the registry
key(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Us
er Shell Folders) and store the paths.

Hope this is useful.

relevant)
