Hi usnul,

Try
$filename = JRequest::getWord('input_name', '', 'post').'_'.$chronofile['name'];
You need to make sure that the result from the input is going to be valid in a file name; and that you maintain the correct file suffix (.png, .doc, etc).

PS This is explained in more detail in Chapter 8 of The ChronoForms Book
