How to customize <input type="file">?

Is it possible to change the appearance of <input type="file开发者_Go百科">?

You can’t modify much about the input[type=file] control itself.

Since clicking a label element correctly paired with an input will activate/focus it, we can use a label to trigger the OS browse dialog.

Here is how you can do it…

label {
   cursor: pointer;
   /* Style as you please, it will become the visible UI component. */
}

#upload-photo {
   opacity: 0;
   position: absolute;
   z-index: -1;
}

<label for="upload-photo">Browse...</label>
<input type="file" name="photo" id="upload-photo" />

The CSS for the form control will make it appear invisible and not take up space in the document layout, but will still exist so it can be activated via the label.

If you want to display the user’s chosen path after selection, you can listen for the change event with JavaScript and then read the path that the browser makes available to you (for security reasons it can lie to you about the exact path). A way to make it pretty for the end user is to simply use the base name of the path that is returned (so the user simply sees the chosen filename).

There is a great guide by Tympanus for styling this.

Something like that maybe?

<form>
  <input id="fileinput" type="file" style="display:none;"/>
</form>
<button id="falseinput">El Cucaratcha, for example</button>
<span id="selected_filename">No file selected</span>

<script>
$(document).ready( function() {
  $('#falseinput').click(function(){
    $("#fileinput").click();
  });
});
$('#fileinput').change(function() {
  $('#selected_filename').text($('#fileinput')[0].files[0].name);
});

</script>

  <label for="fusk">dsfdsfsd</label>
  <input id="fusk" type="file" name="photo" style="display: none;">

why not? ^_^

If you're using Bootstrap here is a better solution:

<label class="btn btn-default btn-file">
    Browse <input type="file" style="display: none;" required>
</label>

Easiest way..

<label>
     Upload
    <input type="file" style="visibility: hidden;"/>
</label>

The trick is hide the input and customize the label.

HTML:

<div class="inputfile-box">
  <input type="file" id="file" class="inputfile" onchange='uploadFile(this)'>
  <label for="file">
    <span id="file-name" class="file-box"></span>
    <span class="file-button">
      <i class="fa fa-upload" aria-hidden="true"></i>
      Select File
    </span>
  </label>
</div>

CSS:

.inputfile-box {
  position: relative;
}

.inputfile {
  display: none;
}

.container {
  display: inline-block;
  width: 100%;
}

.file-box {
  display: inline-block;
  width: 100%;
  border: 1px solid;
  padding: 5px 0px 5px 5px;
  box-sizing: border-box;
  height: calc(2rem - 2px);
}

.file-button {
  background: red;
  padding: 5px;
  position: absolute;
  border: 1px solid;
  top: 0px;
  right: 0px;
}

JS:

function uploadFile(target) {
    document.getElementById("file-name").innerHTML = target.files[0].name;
}

You can check this example: https://jsfiddle.net/rjurado/hnf0zhy1/4/

In webkit you can try this out...

input[type="file"]::-webkit-file-upload-button{
   /* style goes here */
}

first of all it's a container:

<div class="upload_file_container">
    Select file!
    <input type="file" name="photo" />
</div>

The second, it's a CSS style, if you want to real more customization, just keeping your eyes is open :)

.upload_file_container{
   width:100px;
   height:40px;
   position:relative;
   background(your img);
}

.upload_file_container input{
   width:100px;
   height:40px;
   position:absolute;
   left:0;
   top:0;
   cursor:pointer;
}

This example hasn't style for text inside the button, it depends on font-size, just correct the height and padding-top values for container

It's much better if you just use a <label>, hide the <input>, and customize the label.

HTML:

<input type="file" id="input">
<label for="input" id="label">Choose File</label>

CSS:

input#input{
    display: none;
}
label#label{
    /* Customize your label here */
}

Bootstrap example

<label className="btn btn-info btn-lg">
  Upload
  <input type="file" style="display: none" />
</label>

Here is a quick pure CSS workaround (works on chrome and has a FireFox fallback included), including the file name,a label and an custom upload button, does what it should - no need for JavaScript at all!
