The bottom line is that you cannot use JavaScript to set the value of a file field. You just can't do it. The browser makers went out of their way to make sure that this is impossible due to the devastating security issues that would result if it were allowed.
There is absolutely no way to insert a value into a file input element using JavaScript. The only way a value can be put in there is a result of the user choosing a file in the file selection dialog box. All the multi-upload JavaScript tricks are doing is creating separate hidden file input fields, but the user still has to explicitly choose a file value to put into it.
