[PHP] FW: A little O T: input type=File -- Can I make a better looking file box?

2001-12-12 Thread Brandon Orther

Hello,
 
I have been working on a php script and lately have been adding style
sheets and image submit buttons to make it look better.
 
I have now run into the problem that the input type file looks like a
regular form input.  I would like to use an image as the browse button
and a css for the text box.  If I apply a css to the file input it
doesn't look right.
 
Does anyone know another way to make a file input with more options on
looks?  Can I make the browse button an image I make?
 
Thanks for any help
Brandon

Of course input type=image won't browse the file hierarchy.  The truth of
the matter is Brandon that it can not be done by conventional means.  This
is something I investigated a long time ago.  There's a whole conversation
about this on Deja.com.  The only good suggestion is to use some combination
of CSS to hide the original button and JAVA to display a new one.  Hope this
helps some.  :)
