> Is there a way to set the width of a FireFox html form's input tag when the 
tag's type attribute = file?

After some more research (google is my friend!) I learned that FireFox
does honor the size="###" attribute of <input> tags with a type="file"
attribute. BUT: This is clearly a hack.

Why is size="###" a hack? That's just the traditional way to set the
width of input fields, and IMO, the traditional attributes should be
used when possible to help maximize browser compatibility... Firefox
not supporting a width style is a shortcoming/bug of Firefox(spec?)--
with the only limiting factor that I see being you can't script it,
AFAIK... That and you can't set it by pixels...
